Acacia | Acacia macrostachya
Native to the southern Sahelian savannah, this resilient shrub has adapted to extreme heat and arid conditions by developing a natural strategy that enables the seeds of its fruit to capture and retain water.
The seed extract used in our skincare formulas is a concentrated source of natural peptides. It is valued for its ability to help support optimal water distribution within the epidermis by contributing to the function of key skin proteins such as aquaporin and filaggrin. By helping reinforce the skin’s barrier components, it also supports the reduction of transepidermal water loss, promoting long-lasting hydration and skin comfort. This is a key active ingredient in our brightening serum "Voile Lacté", a true glow and hydration booster, as well as in our firming and regenerating rich cream "Perle Sacrée".
Our extract is 100% organic and responsibly sourced from Burkina Faso. It is obtained through solvent-free biotechnological processes, using fermentation and non-GMO enzymes, ensuring high purity while respecting both skin and environment.
