What is it?

Pectin is a natural polysaccharide found in the cell walls of fruits, commonly used in skincare for its gelling, thickening, and moisturizing properties. Known for its ability to form a protective film on the skin's surface, pectin can lock in moisture, soothe irritation, and contribute to the texture and consistency of skincare formulations.

Information

Pectin is a natural polysaccharide found in the cell walls of fruits, commonly used in skincare for its gelling, thickening, and moisturizing properties. Known for its ability to form a protective film on the skin's surface, pectin can lock in moisture, soothe irritation, and contribute to the texture and consistency of skincare formulations.

Where does it come from?

Pectin is extracted from fruits like apples, citrus fruits, and berries, where it serves as a structural component that maintains the fruit's form. In skincare, it is obtained through the processing of these fruits and then purified for use in cosmetic formulations as a natural thickener and skin-conditioning agent.
