Have you heard of mangosteen? It's a little fruit the size of a golf ball, known as the "queen fruit" (king fruit is dourian) in southeast Asia. It owes its reputation to its thirst-quenching flesh with flavors of peach, pineapple and raspberry, as well as to its many curative properties, particularly celebrated in China, Thailand and India.
In recent years, it is mangosteen's anti-oxidant properties that have captured the West's attention: the fruit actually contains the highest content of xanthones (the most powerful antioxidants) that nature has to offer.
Yves Rocher Botanical Beauty researchers seduced by mangosteen's properties
They have selected mangosteen extract for its ability to target fat areas and to firm skin. Mangosteen extract acts like a natural key on all cellulite markers for overall effectiveness. Using a 100% natural extraction process, these experts have developed a particularly concentrated extract.
Assimilated naturally by the skin, this extract from mangosteen shells works on three levels:
- Smoothes the appearance of cellulite
- Reduces the appearance of stubborn fat
- Tightens skin with its moisturizing action
The slimming mechanism is based on the complex balance between the storage and elimination of fat in fat cells known as adipocytes. A number of factors can weaken this mechanism: lack of physical activity, a poorly-balanced diet, etc. so we desperately need outside help. That's where the new Yves Rocher Global Silhouette line comes to the rescue with two formulas:
