Came across this today. I'm interested in the possible anti-cancer (not the aging) benefits:
Skin Benefits

The Medical News Today website reports that Japanese cosmetics researchers from the Noevir Company believe that certain extracts from Spanish moss appear to strengthen the small blood vessels, or capillaries, in skin as well as protect them from damage. In addition, the researchers reported that their studies indicated the Spanish moss extract inhibited the breakdown of skin cells. Together, these results have led many to believe that Spanish moss contains compounds that can prevent the effects of aging on skin.
