Pisum Sativum Extract
Science & Benefits
Pisum Sativum (Pea) Extract is a protein-rich botanical that functions as a high-performance humectant and anti-aging active. It contains specific peptides that inhibit elastase and collagenase—enzymes responsible for breaking down the skin's structural proteins. By protecting the skin's matrix, it helps maintain pore structural integrity, preventing the 'sagging' that leads to teardrop-shaped pores and congestion. It is entirely non-comedogenic and provides a 'film-forming' hydration effect that smooths the skin's surface. It is an ideal ingredient for adult acne-prone users who need structural support and moisture without the risk of heavy lipids.
