The trend is holding steady: cosmetic products that contain active ingredients from botanical sources are still very much in demand among consumers. But popular fruits like pomegranate are not the only things with a positive effect.
Different kinds of vegetables can also have a meaningful impact on our wellbeing and beauty. With its new Superveggies product portfolio, Symrise is now expanding its range of natural active ingredients for cosmetics. The portfolio of Actipone Superveggies includes seven different kinds of vegetables. “We have linked the Superveggies to the four seasons to demonstrate their versatile uses and the many potential applications they have,” explains Diane Lanfranchi, working in global product management botanicals at Symrise. “Asparagus and spinach reflect the regenerative and cleansing nature of the spring, while zucchini and artichoke are perfect for summer products that refresh and firm the skin. In the fall, our need for strengthening and fortifying met by broccoli and beet root. And in winter pumpkin is ideal for rich and comforting care products.” The formulations are complemented by fresh and natural Symrise fragrances.
