A bio-inspired active ingredient
Iresine w. is a particularly resilient plant; it naturally produces betaine to maintain its water balance when facing its arid environment. Expanscience draws inspiration from this plant to develop an innovative active ingredient that replicates this natural adaptation mechanism.
By strengthening cellular osmoregulation, OSMOLYA® helps the skin resist osmotic stress and remain durably hydrated, even under dehydrating conditions.

OSMOLYA® draws its inspiration from Iresine w., a plant capable of surviving in the most arid environments thanks to its optimal regulation of internal water. By replicating this natural adaptation mechanism, OSMOLYA® activates the cellular response to osmotic stress, increases the expression of osmolyte transporters, and reinforces the essential functions of the skin barrier.
Thanks to its richness in polyphenols, it also reduces inflammation and oxidative stress.
Clinical studies conducted on a multi‑ethnic panel of women with dry skin show that OSMOLYA® improves skin hydration from the very first hour, then sustainably over the following days.
OSMOLYA® also demonstrates remarkable efficacy on hair. It hydrates the hair from within by increasing the fraction of tightly bound water in the hair fiber, particularly for textured 4A hair. It strengthens the hair fiber, significantly reduces frizz, and improves curl definition.
Compliant with COSMOS and NATRUE standards, OSMOLYA® meets the strictest international requirements for naturality, quality, and transparency. These certifications ensure an ingredient sourced from natural raw materials and obtained through environmentally respectful processes.
