- Product Highlights
- Shea butter triterpene ester concentrate shown to protect against environmental stress and premature skin aging.
- Ideally suited for skin care and dermo-cosmetics.
- Background
When it comes to protecting skin against environmental stress and premature aging, our naturallyderived bioactives are proven to pack a powerful punch. With documented anti-inflammatory and collagen protecting properties, our canola and shea-based bioactive emollients are effective even in low concentrations. They are ideally suited for antiaging and anti-pollution cosmetic formulations, as well as those targeting sensitive skin.
Harnessing the bioactivity of minor lipids. Using our patented technology, we have been able to utilize the inherent bioactivity of the minor lipids found in sustainable sources of canola oil and shea butter. These range from anti-oxidative natural tocopherols (Vitamin E) to anti-inflammatory phytosterols and skin protecting and revitalizing triterpene esters.
Well-documented functionality and skin tolerance. Lipex bioactives are well-characterized lipophilic ingredients for safe use within beauty and personal care applications. Good skin tolerance with documented non-irritancy makes them well suited for premium facial skin care, dermo-cosmetics and applications for sensitive skin.
