Science

The efficacy of Pyrus Malus Fruit on the skin is attributed to its diverse biological components. A high concentration of polyphenolic antioxidants, vitamin C, and flavonoids actively neutralizes reactive oxygen species, thereby mitigating oxidative stress. Its humectant properties are driven by natural sugars and pectins, which efficiently bind atmospheric moisture and reduce trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL), leading to improved skin barrier function and elasticity. Furthermore, the presence of natural alpha hydroxy acids, particularly malic acid, facilitates gentle enzymatic exfoliation, promoting cellular renewal and refining skin texture. The extract also exhibits mild astringent qualities, assisting in pore minimization and sebum control, alongside vitamin C derivatives that contribute to the visible reduction of hyperpigmentation, fostering a more even skin tone.
