Gattefossé unveils cosmetic active for eye contour

Health and beauty firm Gattefossé has unveiled new cosmetic active Gatuline Link n Lift for eye contour area.

Equipped with the NaDES technology, Gatuline Link n Lift is designed to lift the eye contour and restore youth and radiance to the area.

The NaDES technology is a green and non-toxic process that enables extraction of components that are unattainable with conventional solvents.

Obtained from organic horse chestnut flowers manually picked in Ardèche, France, the new cosmetic active is set to be launched at In-cosmetics London.

Gatuline acts by visibly minimising the under-eye and tear trough wrinkles. It stimulates the fibroblast dynamism, as well as reinforces the communication mechanism of the dermal-epidermal junction.

The firm has conducted a double blind in-vitro study to demonstrate the action of the active.

Gatuline Link n Lift will be launched in April at In-cosmetics London from 4-6 April.

Founded in 1880, Gattefossé operates in 60 countries via an established network of affiliates and distributors.

The firm creates, develops, manufactures and markets specialty ingredients and new formulation solutions for the health and beauty industries.

Gattefossé identifies and develops cosmetic actives of vegetable origin, in addition to functional ingredients with sensorial benefits. It focuses on skin care product formulation.

The firm also develops lipid-based excipients and formulation solutions for pharmaceutical use.
