Cherry NECTA™ – hydration, reduced redness and microbiome
 
In an era where technological performance and environmental responsibility are converging, Cherry NECTA™ is redefining the standards for active ingredient oils. With an efficiency of 16,000 upcycled cherry pits per kilogram of oil, Cherry NECTA™ provides a solution to the demand for sustainable, high-end formulations.
 
Cherry NECTA™ was created based on the philosophy of “too good to waste.” Grown and harvested in Austria and Germany, the cherries are first used to make juice and jam. Through a precise upcycling process, the leftover pits are dried, carefully separated from the fruit pulp, and then cold-pressed to preserve their essential nutrients in their purest form. This closed-loop process transforms a byproduct into a highly effective premium ingredient.
 
A key benefit of Cherry NECTA™ is its proven microbiome-friendly properties. In independent studies, the oil demonstrated that it protects and respects the natural balance and bacterial diversity of the skin’s microbiome, earning a perfect rating. A healthy microbiome is essential for a strong skin barrier and helps prevent irritation and sensitivity.
 
In addition to protecting the skin flora, the oil acts as an intensive regeneration booster. It is rich in linoleic acid, phytosterols, and squalene, which strengthen the lipid barrier and improve moisture retention.
 
In-vivo studies confirm that Cherry NECTA™ reduces transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and noticeably soothes the skin after stressful influences, such as daily cleansing, while reducing redness.
 
With 308% more antioxidant power than conventional cherry seed oil, Cherry NECTA™ also offers protection against free radicals. This golden-yellow oil impresses with its pleasant texture and a subtle, natural marzipan scent.
 
Whether as the centerpiece in modern “Cherry Coded” lip oil formulations or as a regenerative booster in facial care—Cherry NECTA™ is the choice for brands that want to uncompromisingly combine efficacy, transparency, and certified sustainability (COSMOS, NATRUE, Upcycled Certified).
