So, beauty is not connected to the necessity to maximise physical appearance but instead, to the concept of ‘beauty from within’ and the view that good skin health can boost other areas of physical and emotional well-being. That’s why Bionap has continued to invest over the years in the scientific research for Red Orange Complex™, its best-seller ingredient in the beauty from within segment.
Up to standard
Red Orange Complex is a standardised powder extract derived from the juice of three Sicilian blood orange varieties – Moro, Tarocco and Sanguinello – that are exclusively grown in a specific area surrounding the Mount Etna volcano in Sicily. Red Orange Complex is a natural, innovative and scientifically proven ingredient that supports skin health through its powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory activities, cellular protection, skin photoprotection and structural skin improvement.

seek science-backed beauty solutions enhancing skin health from within. These consumers are highly engaged with beauty from within products, especially those clinically tested for skin-protecting properties and holistic beauty. Women in this age group are also increasingly interested in preventing the visible signs of ageing, making Red Orange Complex an ideal ingredient for skin longevity solutions. Moreover, Red Orange Complex is for the global and inclusive market, as it has been clinically tested on both Caucasian and Asian subjects, ensuring its efficacy across different skin phototypes. Red Orange Complex has been studied as an antioxidant and for beauty from within. In total, there have been eight clinical studies with Red Orange Complex and six in vitro studies. Backed by clinical studies, Red Orange Complex has multiple mechanisms of action: ■ Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and cellular protection: Red Orange Complex reduces oxidative stress, increasing glutathione (GSH) levels, a key endogenous antioxidant; it has anti- inflammatory properties; and it protects against cellular DNA damage.
■ Skin photoprotection: It protects against UV-induced erythema and redness, reducing UVA and UVB-related exposure response and minimising photoageing.
■ Hyperpigmentation and skin tone: It supports melanin regulation,
reducing dark spots and promoting even skin complexion.
■ Structural skin improvement: It enhances skin elasticity, hydration and resilience, while reducing wrinkle depth.
Trial proven
Red Orange Complex has two randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials demonstrating its benefits for ‘beauty from within’: protecting the skin against UV-induced damage, minimising skin sensitivity and erythema (skin rash) after sun exposure and reducing sun dark spots and photoaging. Red Orange Complex is produced utilising sustainable and green practices where Bionap preserves natural resources and prevents waste. The extract is produced as an upcycled co-product where it is grown for agricultural production. The supply chain starts with the collection of red oranges that are not sold in the market as fresh fruit because they do not meet aesthetic standards. Red Orange Complex comes from their juice. ●
