Pomegranate Extract for a Stronger Skin Barrier | Greenext

Botanical Solutions to Strengthen the Skin Barrier: Pomegranate Extract

Environmental stressors, UV radiation, and free radicals can weaken the skin barrier. This reduces the skin’s water-holding capacity and may lead to sensitivity and redness. A nature-derived answer is pomegranate extract.

What Is Pomegranate Extract?

Pomegranate (Punica granatum) extract is a botanical concentrate obtained from the fruit’s seeds and peels. Rich in polyphenols and antioxidants—including ellagitannins such as punicalagins—it helps protect the skin against oxidative stress, supports moisture balance, and contributes to a stronger skin barrier.

Benefits for the Skin Barrier

Antioxidant Protection

Pomegranate extract helps reduce the adverse effects of environmental factors and free radicals on the skin, supporting cellular resilience.

Moisture Retention and Softness

By reinforcing the barrier, it helps limit transepidermal water loss, improving suppleness and a smoother feel with regular use.

Reduces Sensitivity

Thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties, it helps ease redness and irritation, supporting the skin’s natural equilibrium.

Evens Skin Tone

With consistent use, pomegranate extract boosts radiance and helps diminish the appearance of tone irregularities.

How to Use

Serums and Toners

Incorporate pomegranate extract as an active in hydrating serums and toners to reinforce the barrier function.

Cream and Lotion Formulations

When included in face and body creams, it helps increase water retention and enhances protection against external stressors.

DIY Masks
