Merck has introduced RonaCare® Balmance, a natural standardized extract of the centaurea cyanus flower, also known as the cornflower.
Conforms to COSMOS & NATRUE Standards
The key bioactive ingredient in RonaCare® Balmance is feruloyl-serotonin (Moschamine). It is obtained by complex multi-step extraction, including supercritical CO2 extraction and under sustainable considerations, which makes this product unique. RonaCare® Balmance conforms to the COSMOS and NATRUE standards.
“
RonaCare® Balmance is the feel-good factor for sensitive and stressed skin. It provides fast skin relief and peace of mind in the long term. It lets consumers look as good as they feel,” said Beate Anniés, head of cosmetics at Merck.
RonaCare® Balmance Harmonizes Skin
RonaCare® Balmance restores harmony to skin with its soothing and calming properties. Working as a skin comfort stabilizer for hypersensitive and problematic skin, the product reduces the susceptibility to skin redness, roughness and itching, also in case of stress (in-vivo).
The bioactive ingredient also supports skin irritation suppression. It minimizes the risk of chronic imbalance in over-reactive skin and balances its defense. Comprehensive in-vitro and ex-vivo data show the ability of Merck’s cornflower extract to significantly reduce the expression of different inflammation biomarkers, including cytokines and chemokines involved in chronic inflammation processes.
“
With this new launch, we enrich our portfolio of natural ingredients for consumers who make high demands on the products they use,” commented Dorothea Wenzel, head of surface solutions at the Performance Materials business sector of Merck.
