GRAPE/LINSEED/OLIVE/SUNFLOWER GLYCERIDES

Description

GRAPE/LINSEED/OLIVE/SUNFLOWER GLYCERIDES is a complex emollient blend derived from natural plant sources. This multi-functional ingredient combines the beneficial properties of grape, linseed, olive, and sunflower oils in a stable, easily absorbed form. The glycerides are produced through a process of esterification, which converts the fatty acids from these oils into skin-compatible compounds.

This ingredient offers excellent moisturizing and skin-conditioning properties, helping to improve skin texture and suppleness. It forms a protective barrier on the skin, reducing transepidermal water loss and enhancing overall hydration. The diverse fatty acid profile of this blend, including omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 fatty acids, provides comprehensive nourishment to the skin.

GRAPE/LINSEED/OLIVE/SUNFLOWER GLYCERIDES also exhibits antioxidant properties, thanks to the presence of polyphenols and vitamin E from its source oils. This helps protect the skin from free radical damage and environmental stressors. The ingredient is non-comedogenic and suitable for various skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin. It can be incorporated into a wide range of skincare formulations, from lightweight serums to rich creams, enhancing product texture and performance while delivering multiple skin benefits.
