Abstract
The polyphenol chrysin is a frequent food component. It has been demonstrated to have a number of favorable benefits on a variety of skin ailments and disorders. It’s anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties are high. It has been demonstrated to protect skin from UV exposure by neutralizing reactive oxygen species that cause cutaneous damage and skin cancer. In acne, psoriasis, wound healing, and cutaneous leishmaniasis, chrysin has shown promising therapeutic advantages. It is increasingly being used in anti-aging skin cosmetics especially those for reducing under-eye dark circles. However, chrysin is not yet clinically translated as a drug. This present review highlights the potential and future scope of chrysin as a therapeutic agent in skin disorders and also as a cosmeceutical.
