Insufficient Data CAS 90082-87-4 / SKIN PROTECTING

Prunus Domestica Seedcake Extract is a rich source of bioactive compounds, including proteins, peptides, and polyphenols, known for their antioxidant properties. This extract demonstrates potential to inhibit lipid peroxidation and has shown preliminary efficacy in addressing hyperpigmentation concerns. Its multifaceted profile supports skin protection and tone evening.

Summary

Antioxidant Anti-pigmentation Brightening Moisturizing Soothing

Science

Mechanism of Action

This extract functions by delivering a spectrum of bioactive components, such as proteins, peptides, polyphenols, carbohydrates, and minerals, to the skin. These compounds collectively provide antioxidant defense by inhibiting lipid peroxidation. Specifically, studies suggest its capacity to modulate tyrosinase enzyme expression, thereby impacting melanin production and offering anti-pigmentation benefits.

Safety

Safety Profile

CIR Status
Insufficient data
Sensitization risk Unknown

The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) has reported insufficient data for Prunus Domestica Seedcake Extract. While plum seed cakes naturally contain amygdalin, a cyanogenic glycoside that is toxic if ingested and hydrolyzed, cosmetic formulations typically involve processing to mitigate this risk for topical application. Related ingredients, such as Prunus Domestica Seed Oil, are generally considered safe, non-comedogenic, and non-toxic for cosmetic use.
