Lumenato™ Gains EFSA Approval: A New Era in Skincare

In a groundbreaking move for the skincare industry, Lumenato™, a specialized yellow tomato extract crafted exclusively by Lycored, has received the much-anticipated approval from the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). The decision by the EFSA Panel on Nutrition, Novel Foods, and Food Allergens acknowledges Lumenato's safety and effectiveness as a novel food, paving the way for fresh opportunities in the global market. With an increasing demand for natural and plant-based ingredients, this approval offers brands the chance to incorporate this innovative extract into their skincare solutions.

What is Lumenato™?

Developed through years of research, Lumenato™ harnesses the power of rare phytonutrients called phytoene and phytofluene, which are colorless carotenoids not commonly found in other plants. These unique compounds work by protecting the skin against harmful UVB radiation, facilitating a deep nourishment that promotes skin health from within.

Lycored's commitment to science is demonstrated through four pre-clinical and three clinical trials backing the efficacy of Lumenato™. These studies reveal its potential to enhance skin structure, by not only boosting collagen levels but also aiding the production of ceramides. This translates into improved skin elasticity, firmness, and barrier function, showcasing Lumenato™ as a pioneering ingredient for the new era of ingestible skincare.

Expanding Product Availability

Lumenato™ is available in various formulations, including powder (starch beadlets), extract (oleoresin), and liquid emulsion. This versatility allows manufacturers to experiment and innovate within a range of applications, thereby catering to different consumer preferences and needs. Each format retains standardized levels of active ingredients, ensuring consistent quality and effectiveness.

With the EFSA's scientific endorsement, brands globally can now begin to strategize and develop their product formulations that include Lumenato™. The potential applications extend into multiple markets, including skin health supplements, nutricosmetics, and other beauty products that promote well-being from the inside out.

A Commitment to Clean Label Products

As consumer trends lean towards clean label products devoid of artificial additives and GMOs, Lumenato™ fits seamlessly into this growing category. The modern consumer is increasingly seeking transparency regarding product ingredients, and Lumenato™ delivers on that promise with its non-GMO project verification.

According to Christiane Lippert, Global Product Manager of the Beauty from Within Portfolio at Lycored, the approval opens doors for Lumenato™ across established markets, including the EU, Switzerland, the United States, Canada, Australia, Korea, India, and beyond. Lippert emphasizes that “Lumenato is a remarkable innovation that helps achieve radiance and glow from the inside out, aligning with the demands for nature-sourced and plant-based solutions.”

Conclusion

Lumenato™ stands out in the skincare industry as a revolutionary ingredient that not only highlights the beauty of nature but also integrates cutting-edge science. This landmark approval by EFSA not only expands Lumenato’s market availability but also reinforces Lycored's dedication to improving well-being through natural innovation. The future of skincare looks promising with Lumenato™ at the forefront, ready to transform consumer experiences and expectations regarding skin health.
