Linseed (glycerite) extract

Flaxseed extract is an excellent ingredient for caring for mature, sagging, and sunken skin. It is known for its
firming properties, as it strengthens the skin while intensively moisturising it. In the skin it is said to stimulate the synthesis
of glycosaminoglycans (including hyaluronic acid) – compounds that form the extracellular matrix and give the skin volume and elasticity. It also helps combat sagging skin and gives the skin tone. It improves moisture levels, making it an ideal ingredient for caring for dry, parched, and dehydrated skin as well.

A glycerite is a plant extract made in glycerol (glycerin). Glycerites are excellent ingredients for use in cosmetic products, as they combine the power of the plant they are made from, while also performing the function of humectants. We therefore get a 2-in-1 action – as a moisturising agent and as an active ingredient.

The hydroglycerin extract is made from between 25 and 50% glycerin, between 25 and 50% water, and between 10 and 25%
flaxseed extract.
