PlantæDerMX® New Zealand Mamaku - Black Fern Meristem Extract
Promotes immediate tightening and lifting of the skin
Mamaku, which is indigenous to New Zealand, is rich in unique, complex polysaccharide gel obtained from the meristem, the embryonic stage of the leaf. When used on the skin, the polysaccharide forms a 3D viscoelastic matrix that offers immediate lifting and tightening properties to the skin. Mamaku was used topically in traditional Māori herbal medicine or Rongoa for skin wounds and infections.
