About

Tiny lipid carriers derived from tomato fruit that shuttle bioactive compounds into skin — they're basically the plant's own delivery vesicles, thought to support cellular communication and antioxidant transfer.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) from Solanum lycopersicum fruit are nanoscale lipid-bound packages naturally secreted by tomato cells. They contain proteins, lipids, and small RNA molecules that may facilitate intercellular signaling. In cosmetics, they are investigated as natural delivery vehicles due to their biocompatibility and potential to penetrate the skin barrier. Research is still emerging; they are not yet widely documented in mainstream cosmetic formulations.
