Use in Skin Care and Remedies

The quince is a delicate, vulnerable plant which has learnt to protect itself. However, this protection does not give it a hard exterior, but it rather has a soft and downy coating. Woody structures in the fruit retain moisture. The high mucilage content combines essential oils and fats with water.

In the same way as the fruit protects itself while it can be outwardly soft, quince cares for the skin in Dr. Hauschka skin care. Biodynamically cultivated fruits are used. Quince seed extract, which is used in Dr.Hauschka Quince Day Cream, Rejuvenating Mask, Soothing Mask, Lemon Lemongrass Body Moisturizer, Quince Body Moisturizer, Lavender Sandalwood, Body Moisturizer, Rose Body Moisturizer, Almond Body Moisturizer, Regenerating Serum, Regenerating Eye Cream, Toned Day Cream and Volume Mascara, is characterized by particular skin compatibility and soothing and anti-inflammatory properties. It also regulates the natural moisture content of the skin. Dr. Hauschka Cosmetics is the only cosmetics manufacturer which also uses quince wax which protects the skin while still allowing it to breathe. The wax coating keeps the fruits fresh for many weeks. In the same way the sweetly fragrant quince wax cares for the skin in Quince Day Cream and Kajal Eyeliner.
