Science
Mechanism of Action
This extract functions by reinforcing the cutaneous barrier and improving the cohesion of the dermal-epidermal junction, crucial for skin strength and resilience. It actively combats oxidative stress through its antioxidant properties and provides anti-inflammatory benefits. Furthermore, it supports enhanced dermal structure, contributing to increased skin elasticity and firmness, while offering deep hydration for comprehensive anti-aging effects.

The Formula
Formulation
Stability
While primarily water-soluble, beneficial components of the extract can also be obtained and formulated using various organic solvents, including C1-C4 alcohols, glycols (e.g., butylene glycol, propylene glycol), acetone, ethyl acetate, diethyl ether, benzene, chloroform, hexane, and hot water. The optimal pH for callus induction was 5.8, but specific pH stability parameters for the extracted active are not detailed.
Safety
Safety Profile
No specific CIR, SCCS, or FDA regulatory status is available. General toxicity (oral, parenteral, dermal, inhalation) for the extract is currently 'not determined'. However, patent claims assert that cosmetic compositions containing Adenium obesum callus culture are non-cytotoxic and harmless for human application.
