Maca Root Extract (Lepidium Meyenii Root Extract)

Lepidium Meyenii Root Extract is a botanical extract derived from the root of Lepidium meyenii (maca), valued in cosmetic formulations for its revitalizing, antioxidant-supportive, and skin- and scalp-conditioning benefits. Often positioned in “energizing” and stress-defense concepts, it helps improve the look of dull, tired skin by supporting a fresher, more resilient appearance and enhancing overall comfort and smoothness. Rich in naturally occurring nutrients and phytochemicals (profile dependent on origin and extraction method), it can also contribute to hair and scalp care by supporting a healthier-looking scalp environment and improving the look of hair vitality. Lepidium Meyenii Root Extract is commonly found in serums, creams, masks, eye products, scalp tonics, shampoos, conditioners, and targeted treatments, typically at low to moderate use levels and formulated for good compatibility across a wide range of skin and hair types.
