What the studies found
- Both studies that tested it directly found it helped with signs of aging

- Some signs of aging improved, including wrinkles, skin texture, hydration, and facial shape
- Wrinkle changes were small in one study, so results may differ by aging sign
- No reported side effects included stinging or itching
