French cosmetics actives maker Laboratoires Expanscience has launched Tulsinity Bio, its first nutraceutical ingredient.
Tulsinity Bio is said to improve the skin’s elasticity, density and skin barrier against daily stress and provides overall wellbeing.
The ingredient is extracted from tulsi leaves, also known as holy basil, which is known for its beneficial effects on the mind and soul.
Its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and immunostimulant properties make it a plant-based raw material of choice to contribute to daily well-being, and in particular to limit the negative impact of stress.
The leaves are certified organic and grown in India according to the most demanding standards of regenerative agriculture (Regenerative Organic Certified) and fair trade (Fair for Life certified).
This supply enables Expanscience to develop and offer its customers an active ingredient that is AB (Agriculture Biologique - organic farming) certified, ROC certified, and FFL labeled.
“This launch marks a strategic milestone for Expanscience, which aims to conquer this promising market by leveraging a unique selling point that combines their expertise in natural cosmetic ingredients with pharmaceutical standards,” said a spokeswoman.
“Over the next ten years, Expanscience aims to make its nutraceutical active ingredients business as important as its cosmetic active ingredients business,” she added.
