TRITICUM VULGARE STRAW WATER.

Insufficient Data / SKIN CONDITIONING

Triticum Vulgare Straw Water is an aqueous solution derived from wheat straw, formulated to provide comprehensive skin conditioning. It is recognized for its ability to moisturize, soothe irritation, and support the epidermal barrier, contributing to overall skin health.

Science

This ingredient delivers a rich array of bioactive compounds, including essential minerals (silica, potassium, magnesium), B vitamins, phenolic antioxidants, polysaccharides, and amino acids. Polysaccharides and amino acids are critical for attracting and retaining moisture, thus enhancing skin hydration and forming a protective barrier. Its parent Triticum vulgare extract has demonstrated mitogenic and proliferative effects on dermal fibroblasts and epidermal keratinocytes, which are crucial for tissue regeneration and accelerating wound healing. It also actively reduces pro-inflammatory markers and inhibits NF-kB activation, providing anti-inflammatory benefits. Further mechanisms include inducing fibronectin expression, increasing hyaluronan synthesis, and stimulating actin polymerization, all contributing to skin structural integrity and hydration.

Triticum Vulgare Straw Water is derived as a steam distillate, forming an aqueous solution. No specific optimal pH range for cosmetic formulation stability has been identified in the available research.


Safety

CIR Status
Insufficient data
Sensitization risk Low

The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel noted in December 2020 that for Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Straw Water, there was insufficient data to determine its safety. Specific data regarding its composition, impurities, dermal irritation, and sensitization at maximum use concentrations were requested. While other wheat-derived ingredients are generally considered safe, a specific safety conclusion for this straw water form remains pending. The SCCS opinion on 'hydrolysed wheat proteins' is not directly applicable to straw water. Based on INCIDecoder, its irritancy potential is classified as low.

Our Assessment

Insufficient Data

While Triticum Vulgare Straw Water exhibits promising in-vitro benefits for hydration, soothing, and regeneration through its derived extract, its current CIR safety status of 'insufficient data' for the straw water itself necessitates caution.
