Country of Origin: China Manufacturer's data: CoQ10 COA

CoQ10 is an anti-oxidant.  topical application might restore mitochondrial activity, increase energy production as ATP, plus reduce power needed to make new collagen.

 

"What can CoQ10 do for your skin? Theoretically speaking, CoQ10 (in a skin cream, for example) can be helpful. In most people over thirty, levels of CoQ10 in the skin are below optimum, resulting in lesser ability to produce collagen, elastin and other important skin molecules. Besides, CoQ10-depleted skin may be more prone to the damage by free radicals, which are particularly abundant in the skin since it is exposed to the elements. Thus, CoQ10 may boost skin repair and regeneration and reduce free radical damage. Furthermore, CoQ10 is a small molecule that can relatively easily penetrate into skin cells."Todorov, G., Can coenzyme Q10 help protect and repair your skin?, Smartskincare

CoEnzymeQ10 is most well known as an antioxidant. For topical application it is often used for that purpose, and for promoting collagen production. Some DIY skin care recipes also include it since it is said to protect against UV damage.
