Prevents Pigmentation and Noticeable Pores
Biobenefity is an extract obtained from artichoke leaves. The active compound "Cynaropicrin" suppresses the activation of NF-κB, a key factor in skin aging, and is a
popular anti-aging natural ingredient that is expected to prevent pigmentation, photoaging, and noticeable pores.
Biobenefity is now available as a new "
Biobenefity Conc" product, in which the active compound Cynaropicrin content has been increased up to 10-fold, according to the company.
The compact concentrated form reduces CO
2 emissions from transportation, container waste, and storage space, making it an environmentally and SDGs-friendly raw material. The increased concentration of active compound makes it an easy product to consider for higher dosage in formulations.
Advantages of the “Conc” series include a high concentration of functional ingredients; lower cost per functional ingredient; and a reduction of inventory storage space; CO
2 emissions during transportation; and plastic container as waste.
The effects of biobenefity series include prevention of melanocyte proliferation; whitening; improvement of noticeable pores; and recovery from wrinkles. Biobenefity Conc is Cosmos-approved and IECIC2021 listed.
