This cosmetic-grade formulation meets the stringent standards required for inclusion in luxury skincare lines, providing formulators with a stable, versatile ingredient that enhances product efficacy. Unlike many antioxidants that degrade quickly in formulation, Bouliga's ergothioneine maintains stability across a wide pH range, making it compatible with various cosmetic bases. Clinical research confirms that ergothioneine delivers significant benefits in reducing oxidative stress markers, supporting its role in advanced skincare formulations.
With a verified purity level of 99.9%, this ergothioneine minimizes the presence of impurities that could compromise formulation stability or cause skin irritation. This high purity allows for precise dosing in cosmetic products, ensuring consistent efficacy.
Bouliga's ergothioneine demonstrates 2.3x greater free radical scavenging activity compared to idebenone in laboratory tests, particularly effective against hydroxyl radicals known to cause DNA damage in skin cells. This potency makes it ideal for protecting against photoaging and environmental stressors.
The ingredient is recognized by the OCTN-1 transporter protein present in keratinocytes and fibroblasts, enabling active uptake into skin cells where it accumulates to provide sustained antioxidant protection. This targeted delivery enhances its effectiveness at lower concentrations.
Stable in both water-based and emulsion formulations, this ergothioneine maintains efficacy across pH 4.0–7.5 and is compatible with common cosmetic ingredients including vitamins C, E, and hyaluronic acid. It withstands typical manufacturing temperatures up to 60°C.
For leave-on products such as serums and creams, the recommended concentration range is 0.05–0.5%. Higher concentrations (0.3–0.5%) are suggested for products targeting mature or photoaged skin, while lower levels (0.05–0.1%) work well in preventive formulations and daily moisturizers.
Ergothioneine should be added during the cooling phase of production when temperatures drop below 40°C to preserve maximum bioactivity. It dissolves readily in water, allowing for easy integration into aqueous phases without the need for special solubilizers.
While inherently stable, pairing with chelating agents like EDTA (0.02–0.1%) can further enhance stability in formulations containing metal ions. Protection from excessive light exposure during storage is recommended to prevent photodegradation.
The ingredient works synergistically with other antioxidants, particularly vitamin C derivatives and ferulic acid, creating antioxidant networks that provide broader protection against different types of free radicals. It is compatible with both synthetic and natural preservative systems commonly used in cosmetics.
All skin types can benefit, but it is particularly advantageous for photoaged skin, urban-dwelling individuals exposed to pollution, and those with sensitivity to environmental stressors. Its gentle nature makes it suitable for sensitive skin formulations.
While it begins scavenging free radicals immediately upon application, its accumulation in skin cells provides long-term protection, with clinical studies showing measurable improvements in skin parameters after 4 weeks of consistent use.
Unlike vitamin C, ergothioneine is not redox-active and does not generate pro-oxidant effects at high concentrations. It complements vitamin C by targeting different types of free radicals and working in cellular compartments where vitamin C is less active.
Yes, Bouliga's fermentation-derived ergothioneine meets the criteria for inclusion in natural cosmetic certifications, with no synthetic additives or GMO components in its production process.
Accelerated stability testing shows the ingredient maintains >95% activity after 3 months at 45°C and 75% relative humidity, confirming its suitability for typical cosmetic product shelf lives of 12–24 months.
