Kaffe Bueno, the immense potential of recycled waste
L'upcycling was undoubtedly the flagship trend of In Cosmetics Global 2023. Co-products are getting a makeover to attract increasingly demanding consumers. sustainability.
Kaffe Bueno understood this very well, by tackling a widespread waste: coffee grounds. Rather than revaluing it into a single ingredient, the young Danish company decided to “ unlock the health potential of coffee » using this marc as a source of multiple ingredients for the cosmeticthere nutraceutical and theeating. Kaffe Bueno has also launched four new ingredients at In Cosmetics Global 2023.
For example, we find KAFFOIL-R™, the second generation of KAFFOIL™ – the first upcycled lipophilic extract derived from coffee grounds using an environmentally friendly extraction process. It's about a sustainable alternative to argan oilthanks to its bioactivity for hair and skin.
Kaffe Bueno also presented KAFFAGE™an upcycled amphiphilic bio-polymer with high activity antioxidant And anti-glycationwhile being a SPF booster natural. It helps formulations mimic skin tone, reducing the need for iron oxides. In addition, its properties emulsifiers And antimicrobial natural ingredients make it a recommended ingredient for BB creams, foundations, concealers, etc.
Regenight, the neuro-cosmetic ingredient with dual topical and olfactory action
We know that maintaining healthy skin depends on multiple factors. THE sleep and the stress, for example, are significant agents of skin damage. The approach holistic is a way to act on different factors that affect skin health (via diet, sleep, sport, etc.)
This is notably the positioning of assets neuro-cosmeticsthese ingredients which aim the skin-brain axis.
This is the case of RegenightTMthe new ingredient of LucasMeyer Cosmeticsthe cosmetics Business Unit of the IFF group.
The ingredient (also upcycled!) is obtained from the distillation process of tea tree oil. Benefiting from in vitro, in vivo and clinical tests, RegenightTM acts both by inhalation of olfactory molecules specific to improve nighttime rest and topical action to help the regeneration skin during the night and reduce oxidative stress. For a revitalized mind and skin!
Lactobio, the 4 in 1 biotic player
Firstly a research laboratory specializing in the microbiome, Lactobio has been able to develop its activity throughout the value chain: the young Danish company is today also ingredient supplier pro and postbiotics, shaper cosmetic and nutraceutical products based on pre, pro and postbiotics but also BtoC cosmetics laboratory with his brand BAK Skincare !
Lactobio has a strain collection of more than 1,500 new non-genetically modified isolates that continues to grow. For now5 patented probiotic strainsfrom human microbiota and fermented plants are available as well as 3 postbiotic strains. The laboratory targets skin acne-prone, atopicsuffering from redness or premature aging. Let us cite for example their strain Lactiplantibaccillus plantarum LB356R® isolated from fermented beetroot which targets acne-prone skin: a clinical study showed a significant reduction in pimples in 71% of users after 28 days of daily application.
Lactobio continues to be dedicated to the research and development of new microbial solutions. This is evidenced by their vast pipeline of projects on biotics covering different applications, from skincare to human healthpassing through the nutrition and the feed.
Upcycling, Mental Health or microbiota… in front of these trends spotted at In Cosmetics Global 2023, we cannot help but see a strong resemblance with the trends that we very often talk to you about in nutrition. Proof that tomorrow's cosmetic innovation draws its inspiration from nutraceuticals, whether in terms of ingredients or promises.
