Raspberry Exfoliant is made from crushed raspberry seeds, naturally rich in essential fatty acids, including linoleic acid (ω6), alpha-linoleic acid (ω3), and oleic acid (ω9). These components are crucial for reinforcing the skin’s hydrolipidic film, contributing to a healthy and resilient skin barrier.
Raspberries are cultivated extensively across temperate regions worldwide. Their plant is a perennial with biennial canes. In its first year, it produces stems bearing large leaves but not flowers. In the second year, stems develop side shoots producing smaller leaves and clusters of white flowers in late spring. The fruit, a red and sweet yet tart aggregate of drupelets, ripens in summer/early autumn.
The Exfoliator range from Lessonia offers a vast selection of natural exfoliants, meticulously crafted from plant-based and mineral sources such as shells, fruits, seeds, herbs, spices, and loofah. These exfoliants provide various colours, textures, and degrees of abrasiveness, making them adaptable to different skincare products and applications. Whether for gentle facial scrubs or more robust body exfoliations, these ingredients enhance the natural appeal of formulations by improving skin texture, promoting radiance, and supporting cell renewal.
