Aging

At NATIVE, we think it is time to drop the negativity around aging, move away from “anti” and reset reality, embrace body positivity and anticipate changes as we age. We are all about pro-aging, and aging well, taking care and loving the skin you’re in. It can be different for every age group, skin type, lifestyle, environment and expectation. It is not about being perfect. This category, historically, is about targeting numerous core issues, like changes in texture, wrinkles, loss of elasticity, dehydration, condition, and regaining a youthful glow. Our technical team has identified some water and oil-soluble phyto-compounds worth exploring to nurture aging skin (based on public scientific peer reviews) and the Cellular Extract plant profiles that deliver them below.

Frequently Asked Questions

There is no single ingredient suitable for every formulation in the anti-aging or pro-aging category for beauty and skincare. Product developers often consider hydration, barrier function, antioxidant-rich botanicals and the desired sensory profile when selecting ingredients. NATIVE EXTRACTS offer natural ingredients in both water- and oil-soluble formats. They deliver water- and oil-soluble phyto-compounds, including Kakadu Plum Cellular Extra, Mountain Pepper Berry Cellular Extract, Red Velvet (Tomato Seed) Oil™ and Native Sandalwood Seed Oil.

Botanical oils and Cellular Extracts offer different botanical characteristics. Botanical oils contribute lipid-soluble compounds, while Cellular Extracts provide water-soluble phyto-compounds. Many formulations in skincare and beauty utilise both. Book a discovery call with NATIVE EXTRACTS Head of NPD Ingredient Strategy or explore our library of 400+ ingredients.

Maintaining skin barrier integrity helps support hydration and protects skin from everyday environmental stressors, making it an important consideration during formulation.
