Psidium Guajava Fruit Extract
Psidium Guajava Fruit Extract, also known as guava extract, is a remarkable skincare ingredient valued for its rich bioactive antioxidants, including gallic acid and catechin (catechin is a naturally occurring antioxidant that belongs to the flavonoid group). These antioxidants help neutralize free radicals that can damage the skin and lead to premature aging. The high levels of vitamins C and A and flavonoids help the skin to protect itself against harmful external influences and promote skin health.
Guava extract is used in 3 products in our cosmetics line and is characterized by ECOCERT certified in its organic quality. This certification ensures that the extract comes from environmentally friendly and sustainable sources, making it an ideal choice for our environmentally conscious customers.
In addition to its antioxidant properties, guava extract also has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects that can help to soothe skin irritations and improve the appearance of the skin.
In traditional medicine, the roots, leaves and bark of the guava are used in various South American cultures, which underlines the versatile health benefits of this plant.
The fruit itself is a popular food that contains more vitamin C than most citrus fruits, making it a valuable addition to both diet and skincare. In our Blog post "The guava, many benefits in a single fruit" learn more about the many health-promoting properties of guavas.
