Applications and Benefits of Mushroom Extracts

CONIUNCTA® mushroom extracts are ideal for use in various skincare products, from moisturizers to anti-aging serums. Their natural ingredients can be incorporated into formulations at concentrations of 2–5% to achieve the desired effects. When combined with other active ingredients such as Vitamin C or hyaluronic acid, their nourishing and antioxidant properties are further enhanced.

CONIUNCTA® offers both water-soluble and oil-soluble versions of these extracts. Water-soluble extracts are particularly suitable for water-based products and are preserved with ingredients such as pentylene glycol, propylene glycol, and glycerin, which also provide moisturizing benefits. Oil-soluble extracts are preservative-free and ideal for sensitive skin, relying on natural preservation methods.
