Scientific name: Brassica campestris sterols
Classification: Active ingredients of plant origin.
Biomimetic, restructuring, emollient.
Tales from Nature
These plant lipids, extracted from rapeseed, act as conditioning , emollient and strengthening agents of the hydrolipid barrier. Their molecular structure mimics the action of skin cholesterol, promoting the regeneration of the stratum corneum and improving the texture of cosmetic formulations. In trichology, they act as sustainers of the hair fiber, increasing its flexibility and shine.
Skin Benefits.
Canola Sterols boost epidermal defenses and optimize deep hydration levels. Their compatibility with skin lipids makes them ideal for treating xerotic or sensitized skin. In specific Antidandruff protocols, these molecules quell skin discomfort, reducing micro-irritation and restoring the balance of the scalp prone to flaking or dandruff.
Skin Benefits
Canola Sterols strengthen and protect the skin barrier, improving moisture retention and defending the skin from environmental stresses. Due to their epidermal lipid-like structure, they are ideal for formulations intended for dry, delicate or damaged skin.
