Description

The lime tree has long been known for its calming and relaxing properties. In cosmetics, its extract is valued for soothing reactive skin and helping skin showing signs of stress and premature ageing associated with intense emotions. It also helps prevent dehydration and protect the skin from sun damage.

Cosmetic applications

Concentrated lime tree extract is ideal for neurocosmetics, benefiting sensitive and stressed skin. It is also useful for preventing dehydration and protecting the skin. It can be added as an active ingredient to creams or gels at a concentration of 2 to 5%.
Note: It is not oil-soluble, so it must be incorporated into the aqueous phase of formulations.

Precautions:

• Do not use on pregnant women without supervision from a healthcare professional.
• Not recommended for children under 12 years of age in cosmetic products without appropriate advice.
• EXTERNAL USE - DO NOT INGEST.
