Swiss cosmetic actives maker Lipoid Kosmetik will showcase Cascara Pro, a coffee-based scalp health and follicle longevity ingredient, at next month’s in-cosmetics Global trade show in Paris, France.
Lipoid Kosmetik responsibly sources and upcycles organic cascara, the outer shell of the coffee cherry, through an ethical and transparent supply chain in Brazil.
Enriched with natural caffeine, the extract is refined into Cascara Pro, a scientifically validated cosmetic ingredient.
Cascara Pro is a COSMOS- and NATRUE-certified cosmetic ingredient that unites high-performance scalp care with the sustainable power of an upcycled, modern plant source and Phospholipon 90 H IP.
Phospholipon 90 H IP is a highly pure hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine fraction sourced from non-GMO soybean.
Hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine, a highly pure fraction of natural phospholipids, offers a unique range of benefits in a single ingredient.
It functions as skin barrier strengthening and replenishing agent, gives an exceptionally smooth skin feeling and can be used as non-irritant emulsifier that ensures superb formulation aesthetics.
Lipoid said the unique synergy between protective polyphenols and flavonoids, and the stimulating effects of caffeine and trigonelline, makes Cascara Pro a complementary solution providing powerful substantiated benefits, such as complementary phytochemical power, improved follicle longevity and protection, enhanced scalp health & vitality, and upcycled, organic and on-trend raw materials.
“With its natural, upcycled, and traceable origin, Cascara Pro stands out as an on-trend ingredient that provides a potent boost for scalp vitality and follicle activity - supporting beautiful, healthy-looking hair throughout life,” said a spokeswoman.
Lipoid Kosmetik will be exhbiting at stand 3L80 during in-cosmetics Global on 14-16 April.
