About
Plant-callus vesicles from ice plant (Mesembryanthemum crystallinum). Brings the desert succulent’s osmoprotectant signature to skincare in nano form.
Mesembryanthemum crystallinum callus extracellular vesicles are nanoscale lipid vesicles isolated from cultured plant cells of common ice plant, a halophyte succulent rich in osmoprotectants such as pinitol, proline, and inositol. They are marketed as a vegan, sustainable cosmetic signalling ingredient with hydration and barrier-stress claims. The vesicle class lacks SCCS or CIR review; toxicology rests on supplier dossiers. The parent plant has been used as food and in cosmetic extracts with a benign profile.
