About

A luxurious water extract from white truffles that contains amino acids and polysaccharides believed to benefit skin hydration.

Tuber magnatum (white truffle or Alba truffle) water is a premium botanical extract used in high-end cosmetic formulations for its purported skin conditioning benefits. Truffles contain amino acids, polysaccharides, and trace minerals that may support skin health. The ingredient is not specifically restricted under EU Regulation 1223/2009. While popular in luxury skincare, published clinical data on its efficacy and safety profile remains limited, placing it in the category of ingredients with traditional or anecdotal support rather than robust clinical validation.
