Cucumis Sativus Fruit Extract

Cucumis Sativus Fruit Extract is derived from fresh cucumber fruit and contains a rich profile of amino acids, organic acids (including caffeic and ascorbic acid), minerals, and polysaccharides that provide immediate cooling and soothing effects on skin. The glycolic extract variant preserves the water-soluble bioactive compounds including cucurbitacins and flavonoids, which contribute to its anti-inflammatory and mild astringent properties. Formulators favor this extract for its high water content (approximately 95% in the source material), making it exceptionally hydrating, and its ability to reduce puffiness and irritation while providing a refreshing sensory experience in skincare products.
