Performance & Formulation Insights for AccessMOIST Artemisia
How Artemisia Capillaris Works
AccessMOIST Artemisia harnesses the power of Artemisia Capillaris, a botanical rich in beneficial phytochemicals like phenolic acids and polysaccharides. These compounds work synergistically to deliver potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. The extract helps to down-regulate the skin’s inflammatory response to external aggressors such as UV radiation and pollution, which in turn reduces visible redness and sensations of discomfort. Its antioxidant properties neutralize free radicals, helping to prevent oxidative stress that can lead to premature aging and a compromised skin barrier. In addition, it helps purify the skin, promoting a clear, calm, and even-toned complexion.
Formulation Guidelines
AccessMOIST Artemisia is a water-soluble liquid extract, making it easy to incorporate into the water phase of emulsions, toners, and water-based serums. For best results, add it during the cool-down phase of your formulation process at temperatures below 40°C to preserve the integrity of its active compounds. It is stable within a typical cosmetic pH range of 4.0 to 7.0. This versatile extract pairs exceptionally well with other soothing, hydrating, and barrier-supporting ingredients such as Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide, Panthenol, and Ceramides to create comprehensive skin-calming solutions.
