Stories from Nature
The chestnut, the fruit of the chestnut tree (Castanea sativa), is distinct from the horse chestnut seed and boasts a very ancient evolutionary history. The fruit is naturally rich in minerals, vitamin C, and phenolic compounds, including flavonoids and phenolic acids.
Thanks to these compounds, chestnut extract is valued in cosmetics for its antioxidant, soothing, and protective properties, which contribute to the well-being of Scalp and the care of the hair fiber.
Hair Benefits
Chestnut extract forms a protective film on the hair shaft, conditioning and moisturizing it, which helps improve the hair’s texture and smoothness. It helps maintain hydration and protects the hair shaft from styling-related stress, leaving hair softer, silkier, and more radiant.
Skin Benefits
Chestnut Extract enhances skin hydration and supports the reparative processes necessary after sun exposure. The natural presence of Vitamin C actively stimulates collagen production, restoring the skin’s natural elasticity and visible firmness. The skin’s texture appears smooth and protected from environmental oxidative stress.
