People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) is the largest animal rights organisation in the world, and PETA entities have more than 9 million members and supporters globally.

PETA opposes speciesism, a human-supremacist worldview, and focuses its attention on the four areas in which the largest numbers of animals suffer the most intensely for the longest periods of time: in laboratories, in the food industry, in the clothing trade, and in the entertainment business. We also work on a variety of other issues, including the cruel killing of rodents, birds, and other animals who are often considered “pests” as well as cruelty to domesticated animals.

PETA works through public education, investigative newsgathering and reporting, research, animal rescue, legislation, special events, celebrity involvement, and protest campaigns. For more information check the Peta official website.

A healthy skin pH is typically between 5.1 to 5.9, with some studies even indicating that healthy skin is often slightly more acidic (below 5). Certain products with higher pH levels can cause dehydration, irritation, and alter bacterial flora.

Skin has a mutualistic symbiotic relationship with its microflora: the human skin provides the right biotope for the resident flora, while the resident flora in turn strengthens human’s defence by prevention of the colonisation of harmful bacteria as well as playing a role in the acidification of the skin

Skin pH < 5.0 shows statistically significant less scaling and higher hydration levels than subjects with skin pH > 5.0. Natural healthy human skin surface pH is on aver- age 4.7, lower than currently assumed (pH 5.4– 5.9).

Skin with pH < 5.0 is in better condition than skin with pH > 5.0, Growth of S. epidermidis, under in-vitro acidic pH conditions (pH 4.7) and in the presence of lactate, is enhanced when compared with neutral pH, whereas growth of S. aureus is strongly inhibited under these acidic conditions. An acid pH seems to preserve the resident bacterial flora, whereas an alkaline pH causes dispersal from the skin.

  • Rubus Idaeus L. Deciduous plant belonging to the Rosaceae family.
  • It is a sarmentosum woody plant with a number of thin thorns.
  • It grows between 40 and 60 cm in height. The plant has a short underground stem, which emits upright biennial stems (canes).
  • The leaves are alternate, pinnate, compound, with 3-7 saw-toothed leaflets per leaf, the lower surface whitish and rough, the upper surface globus.
  • The petioles have two filiform stipules welded at the base.
  • The flowers appear from May to July.

Antioxidant activity

  • The antioxidant activity of these fruits is based on its phenolic compounds (anthocyanosides) and vitamin C content of these fruits.
  • Free radical scavenging and lipid peroxidation inhibition by anthocyanosides and phenol acids have been reported in a number of studies.
  • The antioxidant activity of phenol compounds results from the combination of their iron chelating activity and their ability to scavenge ageing-inducing free radicals.

Moisturising activity

  • Trans-epidermal water loss regulating activity, this activity is due to the carbohydrate and α-hydroxyacids (AHA) content of raspberry, strawberry and blackberry.
  • Carbohydrates are active principles widely used in cosmetics. Monosaccharides are hygroscopic, namely they can adsorb water and consequently maintain the moisture level of the skin layer.
  • Most AHA are physiologic, natural, and non-toxic substances, promoting normal keratinization and desquamation. Those with multiple hydroxyl groups are moisturising antioxidants and are especially gentle for sensitive skin.

Activity on blood circulation

  • Anthocyanosides (Antocianósidos) – like other flavonoids – act like vitamin P by reducing blood-capillaries fragility and increasing their resilience, thus exerting beneficial effects on the capillary and venous vascular system.
  • Thus, Polyplant Red Fruits is very helpful to formulate cosmetic products with stimulating properties on general blood

  • Tall blackberry
  • The Rubus villosus is one of the most common and interesting species.
  • It abounds among the brushwood of neglected fields and pastures, about fences and the borders of woods, from the Eastern to the Southern states.
  • It is commonly called tall or high blackberry in distinction from the R. trivialis or low blackberry, which it greatly resembles in the quality of its fruit.
  • Its flower appears in June and its fruit is ripe in August and September.

  • Vaccinium myrtillus L. belongs to the Ericaceae family, and is commonly known as the bilberry, or whortleberry.
  • Bilberry is a perennial shrub (∼ 35–60 cm in height) and belongs to the Ericaceae family, which grows in coniferous forests, moors and meadows of northern Europe and America, but it is also present in Asia.
  • It blooms from April through June, producing spheroidal blue/black colored fruits (∼5-9 mm in diameter) with many seeds that ripe from July through September.
  • Its name is due to the intense colour of the fruits and derives from the Danish word “bollebar” (dark berry).

Anti-aging and antioxidant activity

  • The bilberry is characterised by its abundance of natural pigments (anthocyanins and carotenoids) and its Vitamin C content, all antioxidants. Additionally, the presence of anthocyanins allows for its use as an anti-irritant agent.
  • Ultraviolet radiation, chemical agents and metabolic processes can all generate free radicals.
  • Vitamin C is an antioxidant, like the anthocyanins and carotenoids (Provitamin A). This vitamin is involved in the formation of collagen, bones and teeth, and red blood cells, and promotes iron absorption from foods and resistance to infection.

Microcirculation activity

  • The bilberry promotes blood circulation. It has vasodilating, anticoagulation, antihemorrhagic and capillary strengthening properties.
  • This, along with its being rich in vitamins, makes it a recommended option for circulation problems, as it improves local circulation, aids in reducing inflammation, reduces dizziness, headaches, ringing in the ears, memory problems or normal leg pain.

Anti-inflammatory and protective activity

  • The bilberry is astringent, anti-inflammatory and considered a soothing plant, as it helps cure and heal wounds. It possesses very effective properties for the treatment of skin problems.
  • It helps reduce ulcers and facilitates their healing, cures eczema, reduces inflammation of blemishes and facilitates their healing, and improves the appearance of the skin of acne sufferers.
  • Due to the presence of gallic, malic and quercetin acids, it has bacteriostatic properties, and can stop the growth of bacteria, some of which may cause skin problems.

Therefore, the bilberry is highly recommended for cosmetic products with anti-inflammatory, decongestant, relaxing and calming properties.
