About

An adzuki bean seed extract rich in proteins and minerals — conditions and smooths skin while delivering antioxidants that help fight free radical damage.

Phaseolus angularis (adzuki bean) seed is rich in storage proteins (18-25%), essential amino acids, minerals (potassium, magnesium, iron, zinc), and phenolic compounds including anthocyanins responsible for its characteristic red color. The seed extract provides skin-conditioning benefits through its protein and polysaccharide fractions, while the phenolic compounds contribute antioxidant activity. Topical application of legume seed extracts is generally safe; the main concern would be allergenicity in individuals with pre-existing Leguminosae (bean family) allergies.

Skin benefits

  • Skin conditioning from protein and amino acid content
  • Antioxidant protection from anthocyanins
  • Mineral-rich — supports skin health
  • May help improve skin radiance

Known concerns

  • Possible allergenicity for individuals with Leguminosae sensitivity
  • No significant toxicity at cosmetic-use concentrations
  • Generally well-tolerated
