This cosmetic ingredient is developed using a meticulous process. It begins with careful cultivation, sorting and drying to preserve quality. The Heat-tink extraction method is followed by maturation at low temperature to finally obtain ARTEMILINE®.

ARTEMILINE® has been clinically proven to improve skin tone by increase skin brightness (L-Value) and by reducing skin redness (A-Value) and the number of visible pores.
