1. What is Gleditsia triacanthos Seed Extract?
A few words about a treasure from nature.
Gleditsia triacanthos seed extract is a natural-origin, eco-designed active ingredient used in modern high-quality cosmetology for its contribution to the immediate improvement of the skin’s appearance.
It is derived from the seeds of the Gleditsia triacanthos tree, also known as Honey Locust, which belongs to the legume family. The extract is rich in high-molecular-weight plant polysaccharides, mainly galactomannans. Galactomannans have a structure similar to carob polysaccharide systems, contributing to the formation of a natural biopolymer film on the skin.
2. How Does It Work?
After the product is applied to the skin and the water evaporates, the polysaccharides in the extract form a continuous, elastic and discreet natural film on the surface of the skin.
This network creates gentle mechanical tension, contributing to an immediate smoothing sensation and a more sculpted appearance, without affecting the skin’s natural comfort.
