What It Does
Ail frais déshydraté is a dehydrated fresh garlic ingredient derived from Allium sativum bulbs, processed at low temperatures to preserve its characteristic bioactive sulfur compounds, most notably allicin and its precursor alliin. This ingredient is valued in cosmetics for its natural antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, attributed to its rich organosulfur content, as well as potential benefits for scalp health and circulation stimulation. Formulators choose it for natural, botanical-forward formulations—particularly in hair care, scalp treatments, and wellness-oriented skincare—where its concentrated, minimally processed profile aligns with clean beauty positioning.
