At Théobroma, we have chosen to use only exceptional natural ingredients . Among them, discover the benefits of carrot macerate, an active ingredient primarily known for brightening the skin.
What is carrot macerate?
Carrot macerate, also called carrot oil macerate, is derived from this vegetable, which is rich in beta-carotene and vitamins. In addition to being excellent for the body when eaten, carrots can also be transformed into a wonderful cosmetic ingredient.
Organic carrot macerate is obtained, as its name suggests, by macerating carrot roots in a vegetable oil . Once infused, this macerate becomes rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and particularly beta-carotene. Although oily, carrot macerate is non-comedogenic and can therefore be applied to all skin types.
Good to know : carrot macerate should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from light.
The benefits of carrot macerate on the skin
We've incorporated this cosmetic ingredient into our skincare products because of its numerous benefits. First, it restores radiance to even the dullest complexions. Beta-carotene is renowned for its healthy-looking effect and can even help prolong a tan !
Its antioxidant properties help fight the signs of aging . It neutralizes free radicals linked to stress, pollution, or sun exposure, thus preventing premature aging. It also reduces age spots with regular use.
Finally, organic carrot macerate contains linoleic acid, a moisturizing agent, which allows the skin to defend itself against external aggressions thanks to a healthy skin barrier.
You can find this ingredient in our Night Cream (TH3+) , which deeply firms the skin and revives the complexion's radiance. Upon waking, the skin is luminous, plump, and more supple.
The benefits of carrot macerate on hair
In addition to being an effective ingredient for the skin, carrot macerate can enhance your hair. It is particularly recommended for damaged or dry hair. The numerous vitamins it contains help regenerate and repair the hair fiber.
Finally, carrot macerate restores shine and radiance to the hair.
We've even incorporated it into our Xo-Chiq - Luminous Argan Oil . Composed of seven precious oils with moisturizing and protective properties, it works wonders on both skin and hair. Furthermore, mica extracts give hair a subtle golden sheen, and the oil releases delicate cocoa notes.
