We want to share our discovery of superfruits, and the reason behind why LYF Cosmetics have used these key ingredients in our very own Rejuvenating Moisturiser; to begin with we would like to share our three main superfruit extracts and the beneficial properties of using these fruits:
Goji Berry: Packed with antioxidants, minerals and vitamins; which aids to anti-ageing protection and improve skin tone discolouration. Goji berry can decrease the level of skin-damaging molecules and promote the production of new skin cells that increase collagen and elastin. Therefore, improving the anti-ageing effect and the skin’s health and appearance.
Acai Berry: Rich in vitamins A, B, C, and E naturally aiding the skin to heal damaged skin cells and restore moisture. Acai berry’s anti-inflammatory properties also help those suffering from skin conditions such as acne. Acai berry also contains zinc, which is a natural SPF anti-ageing protection barrier for the skin against the sun, and ultraviolet rays.
Passion Fruit: Contains vitamin A, vitamin C, riboflavin and carotene. The natural antioxidants help reduce the production of free radicals in the body; reducing the cause of ageing, which is a natural process the skin goes through. Passion fruit has physical anti-inflammatory properties, which soothe the skin of irritation.
The importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle
We would also like to share the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle as this can also affect skin health. Internal factors such as stress, diet, sleep, UV sunlight and pollution are problems that can affect skin health. Consumers are attracted to natural and organic ingredients from fruits and vegetables packed with vitamins and minerals to provide healthy looking skin. Additionally, 80% of consumers in Southern European markets believe that antioxidants provided from foods can reduce the signs of ageing.
Hope you too discovered the power of superfruits, hope you enjoyed, and we will keep you posted on more fruity blog posts!
