Description

Rosa damascena leaf cell extract is a compound obtained from the dried leaves of Rosa damascena.

What it is used for and where
Rosa damascena is a small plant belonging to the Rosaceae family that produces light pink flowers. Phytochemical analysis reveals an abundant content of vitamin C, triterpenoic acids (oleanoic, ursolic, betulinic), unsaturated fatty acids (oleic, linoleic and alpha-linoleic), polyphenols, carotenoids and tannins. Most of these components have demonstrated antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity.
In particular, rosehips are rich in vitamins, minerals, fatty acids. Citronellol and geraniol perform best in the petals.

Cosmetics
Flavoring agent. The purpose of this ingredient is to modify the solution to add flavour. Natural flavouring extracts are rather expensive, so the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries resort to synthesised substances that have sensory characteristics mostly similar to natural flavourings or are naturally equivalent. This ingredient is isolated through chemical processes or is synthesised from chemicals. It is also referred to as Aroma.

Skin protectant. It creates a protective barrier on the skin to defend it from harmful substances, irritants, allergens, pathogens that can cause various inflammatory conditions. These products can also improve the natural skin barrier and in most cases more than one is needed to achieve an effective result.
