Carotene extract is a specialty extract of active carotenoid compounds blended in sunflower oil.

It is used mainly as a Provitamin A-carrier in scalp care, sun protection, day creams, night creams, baby-care, and skin oils. Regular use of the oil can benefit dry skin and wrinkled skin and it acts as a regulator for sebum production. This makes carotene oil extract highly suitable for after-sun preparations. 

Size: 10ml, 30ml (with 'eye dropper' pipette), 50ml or 100ml.
