Benefits

The purity of most caffeic acid available on market is between 70%-90%.; The color is dark yellow which is considered caused by impurities inside.; So it's very difficult to apply this kind of quality caffeic acid in cosmetic product.; Viablife uses industry-leading Biosynthesis and Fermentation technology to obtain high purity (>99%) caffeic acid.; The color of our caffeic acid is light yellow which only has very little effect on the color of cosmetic products applied in.
