SANTALUM ALBUM (SANDALWOOD) WOOD EXRACT

Santalum Album extract is a 100% natural, vegan, COSMOS compliant and biodegradable plant-derived bioactive ingredient obtained from upcycled wood chips to help defy skin aging. It has been used for centuries in traditional medicine for its various benefits for the skin, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and soothing properties. It brings a new approach to well-aging through skin olfactory receptors. Clinically proven to reduce the skin olfactory signature of aging (S-VOCs specific to aging), it captures selective forest VOCs from the sandalwood and enhances skin OR2AT4 olfactory receptors shown to decrease with age and air pollution.

Santalwood is the first biofunctional to be developed with Artificial Intelligence (Al) for a better aging that helps to transform skin’s appearance from dull and lifeless to vibrant and glowing. It is designed to help reduce inflammation, which can lead to premature aging and other skin issues. It enhances skin ceramide synthase and filaggrin in dry skin condition. It reduces skin cell senescence, increases cell longevity and helps mitigate air pollution damage. It adds to the allure of skin with clinically proven benefits for regeneration, firmness, luminosity and anti-wrinkles. It also helps to protect the skin from environmental stressors, such as air pollutants and UV radiation.
