About this ingredient
Betula Platyphylla Japonica Juice (INCI: Betula Platyphylla Japonica Juice) is the tree's sap, rich in minerals, sugars and amino acids. In a formula it works as a hydrating, softening base, replacing part of the water and giving a fresh, comfortable feel. On efficacy it is a supporting component. Its value lies in surface hydration and comfort; the bolder claims about detox or anti-aging effect go beyond the available data. It is a good nourishing vehicle, not a corrective active. In pregnancy and breastfeeding topical use poses no problem; it has no systemic relevance. Tolerance is good, with low irritation and allergy potential, fine for sensitive skin. People with a known birch pollen allergy could be an exception and should keep it in mind.
