Phalaenopsis Pulcherrima Leaf Cell Extract

Phalaenopsis Pulcherrima Leaf Cell Extract is derived from the leaves of the moth orchid plant. The extract is obtained through processing plant cells to capture their bioactive compounds, which are then incorporated into skincare formulations.In skincare products, this ingredient functions primarily as an antioxidant and skin protectant. Antioxidants work by neutralising free radicals — unstable molecules that can damage skin cells and contribute to visible signs of ageing and environmental stress.

The extract contains compounds that act as antioxidants, meaning they donate electrons to free radicals and render them stable. This process, called oxidation neutralisation, helps prevent the chain reactions that lead to cellular damage and premature skin ageing.By protecting skin cells from oxidative stress, the ingredient supports the skin's overall resilience and may help maintain a healthier skin appearance over time, particularly when used as part of a comprehensive skincare routine.

This ingredient is typically found in serums, moisturisers and other leave-on skincare products. It works well alongside other antioxidants and can be layered with complementary actives. Use morning and evening as part of your regular routine. Results are gradual and best assessed over several weeks of consistent use.

Generally well-tolerated in skincare formulations. Those with known sensitivity to plant extracts or orchid family plants should patch-test before full application.
