How it works in skincare

In cosmetics and skincare, tuberose extract functions primarily as a fragrant and conditioning agent. Its natural volatile oils and phenolic compounds help to soften and soothe the skin’s surface, making it a popular choice in luxury moisturisers, facial oils and body butters. The extract also acts as a natural perfume component, imparting a rich, heady floral note that lingers delicately on skin and hair without the need for synthetic fragrances.

Where it comes from

Tuberose Extract comes from the flowers of Agave amica (formerly Polianthes tuberosa), a night-blooming plant native to Mexico that is now cultivated in many warm climates including parts of India. The fragrant white blossoms are typically harvested at night and processed using solvent extraction or enfleurage to capture their intense floral oils.
