Pyrus Malus Fiber

Pyrus Malus Fiber is a natural exfoliating ingredient derived from apple pomace—the fibrous residue left after apple juice and cider production. Rather than discarding this by-product, it is processed and incorporated into skincare formulations where it functions as a mechanical exfoliant.In addition to its exfoliating role, this ingredient also serves stabilising and texture-modifying functions in formulations, helping to maintain consistency and prevent separation of oil and water-based components.

As a mechanical exfoliant, apple fibre works physically rather than chemically. When gently massaged onto damp skin, the fine fibrous particles help slough away the outermost layer of dead skin cells, promoting a smoother appearance and potentially allowing other skincare actives to penetrate more effectively.The ingredient also contributes to formulation stability by thickening the product and helping maintain an even distribution of ingredients throughout the formula.

Use 1-2 times weekly as part of a gentle exfoliating routine. Apply to clean, damp skin using light circular motions, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Follow with your regular moisturiser to support the skin barrier. Avoid using if skin is already compromised or inflamed, and discontinue if irritation develops.

Generally well-tolerated as a physical exfoliant. Avoid use on broken, irritated or highly sensitive skin, and do not over-exfoliate as this may disrupt the skin barrier.
