Stories from Nature
Brassica campestris (or rapeseed) sterols are plant-based lipids extracted from rapeseed; they act as conditioning, emollient, and hydrolipid barrier-strengthening agents. Their molecular structure resembles the elements naturally present on the skin, helping to improve the texture of cosmetic formulations and support the soft, smooth appearance of the Scalp. In cosmetics, they act as conditioning agents for the hair fiber, imparting greater flexibility and shine to the hair.
Benefits Scalp
Brassica Campestre sterols help keep the skin hydrated, supporting its natural comfort. Thanks to their affinity with skin lipids, they help preserve the skin’s softness, elasticity, and pleasant feeling of well-being. On the scalp, they promote a feeling of comfort and balance, contributing to the well-being of the Scalp even in cases of dryness, flaking, or dandruff.
Skin Benefits
Brassica campestre sterols strengthen and protect the skin barrier, improving moisture retention and defending the skin against environmental stressors. Thanks to their structure, which is similar to that of epidermal lipids, they are recommended for formulations designed for dry, delicate, or damaged skin.
