Raspberry Exfoliant is a natural exfoliating ingredient manufactured from raspberry seeds, a reference of seeds range.
Raspberries are an important commercial fruit crop, widely grown in all temperate regions of the world.
Plants of Rubus idaeus are generally perennials that bear biennial stems ("canes") from a perennial root system.
In its first year, a new, unbranched stem ("primocane") grows vigorously to its full height of 1.5–2.5 m (5.0–8.3 feet), bearing large pinnately compound leaves with five or seven leaflets, but usually no flowers.
In its second year (as a "floricane"), a stem does not grow taller but produces several side shoots, which bear smaller leaves with three or five leaflets. The flowers are produced in late spring on short racemes on the tips of these side shoots, each flower about 1 cm (0.4 inches) diameter with five white petals.
The fruit is red, edible, and sweet but tart-flavored, produced in summer or early autumn; in botanical terminology, it is not a berry at all, but an aggregate fruit of numerous drupelets around a central core. In raspberries (various species of Rubus subgenus Idaeobatus), the drupelets separate from the core when picked, leaving a hollow fruit, whereas in blackberries and most other species of Rubus, the drupelets stay attached to the core.
Raspberry seeds are rich in linoleic (6%), alpha linoleic (3%) and oleic (9%) acids, 3 essential fatty acids which reinforce the skin hydrolipidic film.
