SUSTAINABLE and based on the stimulating red color, raw materials of 2013 bring new opportunities to cosmetic formulators.
ORIGINAL EXTRACTS range grows this year with two delicious red fruit, cherry and cranberry:

ORIGINAL EXTRACT CRANBERRY BIO is a 100% cranberry water containing volatile components, trace elements and mineral salts as found in the fresh fruit.

ORIGINAL EXTRACT CHERRY BIO is a 100% cherry water with anti-aging benefits. Proven growth factor booster, it will help
revitalizing the skin and targeting successfully wrinkle smoothing.
As traditional water has been removed from the organic calculation in COSMOS standard, formulating with ORIGINAL EXTRACTS BIO is an easy way to increase the percentage of overall organic material.

This year, Gattefossé has also designed a new ingredient composed of 100% certified sustainable palm ingredients. LIPOCIRE™ A SG, the first texturizing agent to be certified sustainable, will be launched during In-Cosmetics 2013. The “SG” suffix stands for “Segregated”. It comes from the RSPO (Roundtable for Sustainable Palm Oil) supply chain certification systems.
New efficacy results obtained with Zin’CÎte™ will also be unveiled. Glycation is a process that weakens the global support system of the skin. Tested in vitro, Zin’Cîte™ inhibits this glycation reaction with a clear dose effect. Zinc-rich liquid active, Zin’Cîte™ will protect the skin against the loss of elasticity and firmness.
