KAFFAGE® is a patented biopolymer derived from upcycled defatted coffee by-products, revolutionising skincare with its multi-functional capabilities. Enriched with polyphenolic groups, it offers significant antioxidant activity and prevents UV-induced glycation, safeguarding collagen and elastin. Clinically proven to boost hydration by 16%, KAFFAGE® also reduces wrinkles, crow’s feet, and hyperpigmentation in just 28 days.
This ingredient enhances sun protection by absorbing harmful UV light, including UV-B rays that cause sunburn. Its natural colouration allows it to mimic various skin tones, offering a cleaner alternative to traditional colour compounds in cosmetics, making it ideal for BB creams, CC creams, and tinted moisturisers. Additionally, KAFFAGE® exhibits high water solubility, emulsifying, and thickening properties, easing cosmetic formulations.
Supported by rigorous scientific testing, including in vivo trials showing significant improvements in skin hydration, fine lines, and pigmentation, KAFFAGE® represents innovative, consumer-centric solutions in personal care. It meets the growing demand for products that combine aesthetic and skin health benefits, fulfilling the industry’s shift towards ‘makeup skinification’
