Givaudan Active Beauty has unveiled two new active ingredients crafted by Green Biotechnology, after one year of partnership with the South Korean beauty innovation company, BIO-FD&C Co., Ltd.
Developed in Partnership with Bio FD&C
Inspired by the latest K-Beauty trends,
K-phyto™ [SC] Camellia is an extract of plant stem cells designed to address dry scalps and dandruff, while
K-phyto™ [PP] GHK is a phytopeptide aimed to reduce skin sebum production.
“
The exclusive partnership with Bio FD&C leverages the untapped power of plants through stem cell cultures and unique phytopeptides. It allows our experts to offer innovative natural and reliable solutions for hair and skin care issues such as dry scalp and oily skin, while protecting our planet,” said Mathias Fleury, global category manager for Biotechnology Actives.
K-phyto™ [SC] Camellia Moisturizes Scalp
K-phyto™ [SC] Camellia is a powerful active obtained from Camellia phytoplacenta cells culture. By using plant cells culture, Givaudan’s scientists have been able to isolate and replicate these cells from a Camellia flower (traditionally used in Asia for its scalp care and hair conditioning properties), originating from the famous Korean Jeju Island, without endangering Nature’s resources.
This unique active will increase the scalp moisture content, up to +13.8 percent, reinforce the epidermal cohesion of the scalp keratinocytes, resulting in a reduced number of dry flakes and dandruffs down to -33.6 percent, and significantly soothe the scalp, with a reduction of its erythema down to -6.6 percent.
If K-phyto™ [SC] Camellia offers major benefits in one week, it also delivers great results after just one single shampoo application, restoring hydration, improving soothing and reducing flakes better than the placebo conditions, for a perfect instant gratification effect.
K-phyto™ [PP] GHK Reduces Facial Sebum
K-phyto™ [PP] GHK is an innovative molecule that combines the best of botanicals and peptides to act on sebum production’s mechanisms. The phytopeptide technology (combining a peptide with a natural phytochemical molecule), it offers a full set of actions, starting with preserved antioxidant and anti-aging activities compared to the initial molecules (caffeic acid and matrikine GHK).
Clinical studies have shown significant benefits (versus placebo) on reduction of the facial sebum production in just 2 weeks (-35.5 percent), with an even more impressive efficacy after one month of use (67.5 percent), up to five times better than placebo.
