About
Plant exosome-like vesicles isolated from cultured immortelle (Helichrysum) callus cells. Promising soothing/antioxidant signals but lightly studied.
Helichrysum italicum callus extracellular vesicles are nano-sized lipid bilayer particles isolated from plant cell cultures (callus) of immortelle. They are marketed as a vegan, sustainable analogue to mammalian exosomes, carrying plant micro-RNAs, polyphenols, and lipids that may support antioxidant and soothing pathways. The ingredient class is novel and lacks independent SCCS/CIR review; safety rests on supplier dossiers and the long cosmetic history of Helichrysum extract, which is generally well tolerated though it can rarely sensitize fragrance-allergic users. No EU restrictions.
