Organic Acerola

Naturally rich in vitamin C and antioxidant compounds, acerola is a valuable plant-based ingredient for enhancing skin radiance and supporting its vitality against daily aggressions.

In cosmetics, it fits into a holistic approach: protect, reveal the natural brightness of the complexion, and maintain skin balance, in a gentle and well-tolerated aqueous form.

At Pômesse Paris, acerola is chosen for its radiance-enhancing role, complementing a routine designed for skin exposed to urban rhythms.

A rich plant extract from an exceptional fruit

Acerola (Malpighia emarginata), also known as the West Indian cherry, is recognized as one of the fruits most concentrated in natural vitamin C.
It also contains polyphenols, flavonoids, and carotenoids, widely studied for their antioxidant properties.

The aqueous extract used in cosmetics is obtained without harsh solvents, in order to preserve the natural richness of the fruit and ensure excellent skin tolerance, even on sensitive skin.

A contribution to the skin's antioxidant defense

Thanks to its naturally rich composition, acerola extract helps support the skin against oxidative stress linked to the environment: pollution, sun exposure, fatigue, and lifestyle variations.

This action is part of a logic of supporting the skin's natural protection mechanisms, to preserve skin vitality and radiance over time.

Radiance, freshness, and visibly brighter complexion

Acerola goes beyond protective action.
It is also appreciated for its ability to:

• contribute to reviving the skin's radiance,

These effects are part of a progressive and respectful cosmetic approach, without aggressive action or artificial transformation of the complexion.
