Ferulic acid as a cosmetic super antioxidant is often used in anti-aging skin creams and serums. It’s believed to neutralize free radicals. Most studies of ferulic acid and sun damage have used it along with vitamins C and E, not by itself. Even so, it’s believed to have protective properties on its own along with boosting the effects of other skin protectants. Further studies suggest that the antioxidant activity of ferulic acid protects your skin from the sun’s damaging UV rays.
