Nutritional expert DSM International has launched two new ingredients to be used by In Cosmetics. The new ingredients are said to have anti-ageing and skin improving properties.
The first ingredient called Radiance CR is an active complex, which beautifies skin through its ability to smoothen and lighten the skin. It will be used as an active ingredient in skin lightening products, targeting people with duller complexion and age spots.
The second ingredient to be launched by DSM is Niacinamide PC. It is known to be a niacinamide extract with minimal traces of nicotinic acid, a compound known to irritate skin. This ingredient is believed to be having skin benefits like skin lightening, anti-wrinkle, anti-acne and skin barrier strengthening properties.
DSM is expanding its hold in the beauty arena slowly. It recently announced a US$2m investment in the Israeli company Sol-Gel Technologies. The company has a strong stake in pharma and nutra field, where it is leading food, beverage and dietary supplements and animal feed industry.
