My Cosmetik Grapefruit Seed Extract is a preservative for aqueous phases. It easily replaces isocide in your cosmetic preparations. Its antibacterial and antifungal properties will effectively prevent the development of microorganisms in all your cosmetics containing an aqueous phase (water, hydrosol, aloe juice, glycerin, etc.). Grapefruit Seed Extract (EPP) offers two main properties when making your homemade cosmetics. EPP offers powerful antioxidant properties that are very beneficial for both our skin and our body (it is particularly concentrated in vitamin C and bioflavonoids). Its notoriety is also due to its powerful antimicrobial action. When making homemade cosmetic products, the risk of microbial development generally comes from the aqueous phase (water, hydrosol, aloe juice, glycerin, etc.). Adding EPP to your formulations then makes it possible to guarantee good conservation of this phase by preventing microbial proliferation. EPP is the natural and organic alternative to synthetic preservatives such as parabens, phenoxyethanol, triclosan, etc. It is to doctor and gardener Jacob Harich that we owe this discovery of the antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of EPP: he noticed that the grapefruit seeds in his homemade compost always remained intact, without decomposing under the action of microorganisms. .
