Rubus Idaeus (Himbeere)
INCI-Bezeichnung: Rubus Idaeus (Raspberry) Fruit Extract / Rubus Idaeus Seed Oil
Origin
Raspberry (Rubus idaeus) is native to Europe and Asia and is one of nature's most antioxidant-rich fruits. Both the fruit extract and the cold-pressed raspberry seed oil are used in cosmetics. Raspberry seed oil has a natural SPF of about 28–50, making it one of the few plant oils with natural UV protection.
Production
The extract is obtained through gentle extraction from the raspberry fruits. The oil is produced by cold-pressing the raspberry seeds to preserve all valuable active ingredients.
