Quercus Suber Bark Extract
Cork oak bark extract
The cork oak (Quercus suber) grows in the western Mediterranean, mainly in Portugal and Spain. Its thick bark is the source of cork, and the extract obtained from it contains polyphenols and triterpenes.
In cosmetics, cork oak bark extract has soothing and antioxidant properties - it helps calm sensitive skin and protect it from external factors. It works well for skin prone to redness.
In our cosmetics, you will find it in our soothing face serum.
Did you know?: Cork is the bark of the cork oak - it is stripped by hand every few years without felling the tree, which then grows its bark back.
