Frequently asked questions
What is VanilleActiv2™?

VanilleActiv2™ is a naturally derived vanilla extract active used in skincare for its antioxidant and soothing properties. It helps neutralise free radicals from pollution and UV exposure, supporting a healthier-looking barrier. With regular use, skin appears smoother, more even, and better protected against daily environmental stress.
What are the benefits of VanilleActiv2™ in skincare?

VanilleActiv2™ provides broad antioxidant defence and comfort for easily stressed skin. It helps reduce the look of dullness and uneven tone by defending lipids from oxidation and supporting barrier function. Formulas featuring this active aim to deliver a softer feel, improved resilience, and a naturally radiant finish over time.
Is VanilleActiv2™ suitable for all skin types?

Yes. VanilleActiv2 is generally well tolerated by dry, oily, combination, and sensitive skin because it focuses on comfort, mild antioxidant support, and barrier care. Its low-irritancy profile makes it a practical addition for daily routines seeking gentle protection without heavy textures or strong exfoliating acids.
Can VanilleActiv2™ help with signs of ageing?

By helping to neutralise free radicals that accelerate visible ageing, VanilleActiv2™ supports a smoother, more supple appearance. While it is not a substitute for sunscreen or retinoids, pairing it with daily SPF and hydrating actives can visibly enhance radiance and help soften the look of fine lines over time.
Is VanilleActiv2™ a natural ingredient?

VanilleActiv2™ is derived from the vanilla plant and refined for cosmetic use to maximise stability, skin compatibility, and sensory elegance. Its botanical origin aligns with formulas that avoid harsh additives, delivering antioxidant comfort while maintaining a light texture that absorbs cleanly under moisturiser or SPF.
Can I use VanilleActiv2™ with other active ingredients?

VanilleActiv2™ generally layers well with humectants, niacinamide, vitamin C derivatives, and peptides. Because it is not acidic or highly sensitising, it fits easily into routines that already include exfoliants or retinoids. Introduce gradually and observe skin response, especially if your regimen is already active-rich.
Does VanilleActiv2™ have a strong scent?

VanilleActiv2™ features a delicately light vanilla aroma—soft, subtle, and not overpowering. It’s designed to complement formulations without dominating them, making it ideal for products where a gentle sensory experience is preferred.
Is VanilleActiv2™ safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

VanilleActiv2 is generally considered low risk for topical use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. As with any new product in pregnancy or while breastfeeding, patch test first and consult your healthcare professional if unsure or if your routine includes strong exfoliants or retinoids.
How long does it take to see results with VanilleActiv2™?

Antioxidant protection is immediate, but visible improvements in comfort and radiance typically appear within 2–8 weeks of consistent use. Pairing VanilleActiv2™ with daily SPF, a hydrating serum, and regular moisturising helps maintain results and supports a smoother texture and more even-looking tone.
Which products commonly include VanilleActiv2™?

You’ll most often find VanilleActiv2™ in antioxidant serums, daily moisturisers, and barrier-support creams aimed at dullness or environmental stress. It is also used in brightening blends where gentle protection is desired alongside humectants, lightweight emollients, and everyday sun protection steps.
