White Botanical Seed

A Naturally Illuminating Power

Passionate and dedicated, researchers in Plant-based Cosmetics have developed a deep understanding of nature and ecosystems, fueled by the conviction that skin beauty begins with a choice of high-quality ingredients derived from plants harvested with the utmost respect.

Over 15 years ago, during an expedition in South America, they observed the White Botanical Seed in its natural ecosystem. This unbreakable seed, of great purity, carefully preserves its naturally illuminating power at its core.

Its ivory color reflecting light fascinated them and compelled them to study it. For many years, they attempted to unravel the mystery of this seed.

For the first time in cosmetics, Yves Rocher Scientists have combined their unique knowledge of plant science with innovative botanical extraction technology from Brittany to activate the potential effectiveness of this seed in revealing the skin’s radiance.

Through an innovative 100% natural hydrothermal process, they have succeeded in extracting the ingredients of the White Botanical Seed.

Thanks to its properties, the White Botanical Seed allows the diffusion of light within the heart of the skin*.

Why is the White Botanical Seed of rare purity?

  • It has an ivory color synonymous with purity.
  • Its composition of mannane polymers makes it a highly pure seed (>95%).
  • This purity allows for a unique reflection of light.
