MALUS DOMESTICA FRUIT WATER

Description

Malus Domestica Fruit Water, derived from the common apple (Malus domestica), is a versatile and beneficial ingredient in skincare formulations. This clear, liquid extract is obtained through a careful distillation process of apple fruit, preserving its essential nutrients and active compounds.

Rich in natural antioxidants, particularly polyphenols and flavonoids, Malus Domestica Fruit Water offers potent free radical scavenging properties, helping to protect the skin from oxidative stress and environmental damage. It contains malic acid, a natural alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA), which provides gentle exfoliation and promotes cell turnover, resulting in improved skin texture and tone.

The high vitamin C content in apple fruit water contributes to collagen synthesis, enhancing skin elasticity and firmness. Additionally, its natural sugars and minerals help to hydrate and nourish the skin, making it an excellent choice for moisturizing formulations.

Malus Domestica Fruit Water also possesses mild astringent properties, making it suitable for oily and acne-prone skin types. Its refreshing and soothing nature can help calm irritated skin and reduce redness. This ingredient is compatible with various skin types and can be incorporated into a wide range of skincare products, including toners, serums, and moisturizers.
