Science

Mechanism of Action

This extract acts through multiple pathways to enhance skin health. Its high concentration of vitamins (A, C, E), polyphenols, and ascorbic and dehydroascorbic acids provides potent antioxidant defense against free radicals and environmental damage. A polysaccharide/amino acid complex contributes to significant skin hydration. Furthermore, the presence of mangiferin may inhibit Matrix Metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), thereby reducing collagen degradation and supporting skin tautness. Natural AHAs offer gentle exfoliation, promoting a brighter, more even skin tone by minimizing dark spots, while its anti-inflammatory properties soothe the skin.

Stability

Thermally stable, this extract can be incorporated into the water phase of emulsions at 70-75°C before emulsification. Optimal storage conditions are in a cool, dry place (<28°C) away from direct sunlight. While low temperatures may cause cloudiness, this does not compromise its activity.

Conflicts

  • Ionic emulsifiers may not be optimal, as non-ionic emulsifiers are specifically recommended to maintain the slightly acidic pH range (4.5-6.5) often desired in formulations containing this extract.
