New breakthrough findings show how ALPAFLOR® SCUTELLARIA AO relieves urban stress for incomparable skin comfort.

Protection Against Skin Damage


ALPAFLOR®SCUTELLARIA AO includes the exclusive and rare Alpine plant species Scutellaria alpina. In a discovery which is new to the cosmetics industry, DSM’s latest in-vitro studies now prove that ALPAFLOR® SCUTELLARIA AO activates GABAB receptors, thus protecting against skin barrier damage and reducing skin irritation and pain sensation. The bioactive also stimulates the release of β-endorphins, these 2 key neuromediators help to calm and soothe sensitive skin.

Furthermore, a four-week in vivo study conducted in a very harsh, polluted environment in Beijing confirmed ALPAFLOR® SCUTELLARIA AO’s excellent ability to protect the skin barrier, keep the skin looking healthy and relieve dullness, even after strong environmental stress.

Organic & Sustainable Bioactive


In addition to its unique chemical profile and high scutellarin content, ALPAFLOR® SCUTELLARIA AO is fully sustainable and traceable.
