Apple - Eco

  • Company:

    Provital

  • INCI Name:

    Water (and) Glycerin (and) Pyrus Malus (Apple) Fruit Extract (and) Sodium Benzoate (and) Potassium Sorbate

Apple - Eco is standardized extract obtained in a medium of Glycerin / Water (50:50) from the fruits of "Pyrus malus L.", harvested from organic crop. It contains 0.5 - 1.5% of reducing sugars. Trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL) regulatory activity is due to the carbohydrates and α-hydroxyacids (AHA) in apple. Most AHAs are natural active compounds that promote normal keratinization and desquamation. Carbohydrates are hygroscopic, namely they adsorb water thus contributing to keep a healthy moisture level in the horny layer.

Because of its high content in phenol compounds and vitamin C, apple has antioxidant properties, scavenges free radicals and protects the organism from cell deterioration. Apple Eco is highly recommendable to formulate cosmetic products with moisturizing activity on skin and hair. Paraben free.
