About this ingredient
Fragaria Chiloensis (Strawberry) Fruit Extract is an extract from the strawberry fruit, with vitamin C, organic acids and antioxidants. In cosmetics it is used as a supporting ingredient for a more even tone and a toning effect. It appears in serums, toners and masks focused on radiance. On efficacy, it pays to temper enthusiasm. The fruit's vitamin C is low in concentration and unstable, so the extract is not the equal of a formulated vitamin C serum. It is a supporting active with a light antioxidant and freshening contribution, not a brightener with solid clinical backing. Its effect depends on concentration and the formula. For topical use in pregnancy and breastfeeding there are no risk signals. Systemic absorption of a fruit extract from skin is minimal, so it can be used in these stages. Tolerance is good. Low irritation and low allergy potential. Anyone with a known strawberry allergy should take care; for others, most see no reactions.
