Cactus flower extract
INCI Name: Cactus Flower Extract (Cereus Grandiflorus)
It may be surprising that a desert plant can have a beneficial effect on the skin, but cactus is a popular cosmetic ingredient for its restorative and moisturizing properties.
Due to their dry environment, cacti are hardy and rich in antioxidants and fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamin E, which is essential for plants to retain moisture in dry conditions. The cactus extract also contains a large amount of vitamin E and is rich in essential fatty acids, amino acids and vitamin K. It is used in the beauty industry due to its soothing and healing effect.
