Maple sap water is a watery, nutrient-rich liquid that is harvested from maple trees during the springtime. While maple syrup is well-known for its sweet taste and use as a natural sweetener, maple sap water as a skincare ingredient has shown to have incredible benefits for skin health and is used in all of Clean Maple's products.
Hydration
When it comes to hydration and delivering active ingredients to the skin, the size of molecules plays a crucial role. Maple sap water, with its small molecule size, is an excellent foundational ingredient for skincare. Water molecules are larger than our skin's outermost layer, which is naturally water-resistant. To effectively hydrate the skin, smaller molecules are desirable, and maple sap water fits the bill, making it capable of quickly hydrating the skin and delivering essential nutrients deep within.
Nutrient-Rich
In addition to being easily absorbed, maple sap water is packed with minerals (such as zinc, potassium, magnesium and manganese), polyphenols and 46 bio-active compounds which are essential for healthy skin. These natural goodies can help to strengthen the skin's barrier function, improve elasticity, and promote cell turnover, which can lead to a more youthful, radiant complexion.
Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant
Maple sap water is full of potent antioxidants that rejuvenate and improve skin texture while combating inflammation and blemishes. It boasts high levels of phytochemicals and polyphenols, which safeguard cells from oxidative stress and damage. Oxidative damage, driven by free radicals, contributes to aging, inflammation, and various chronic diseases. Antioxidants counteract these effects, neutralizing free radicals and shielding your skin from environmental factors like UV exposure and pollution. Moreover, antioxidants stimulate collagen production, enhancing skin elasticity.
Whether you're looking to hydrate, soothe, exfoliate, or improve overall skin health, products like Clean Maple's that contain maple sap water, can deliver these benefits as part of your skincare routine.
