Pterostilbene’s Youth-Preserving Power
A patented and multifunctional ingredient that maintains skin health against solar damage, environmental factors and cellular aging process.
A multifunctional ingredient for your skin
- Maintains skin health when exposed to UVA, UVB rays and ionizing radiation
- Provides antioxidant support
- Helps skin modulate inflammation response
- Helps skin modulate pigmentation due to environmental stresses and age
- Boosts the activity of sirtuins for cell vitality and aging regulation.
Blueberries are the perfect anti-aging fruits thanks to Pterostilbene
Key to blueberries’ rejuvenating power is pterostilbene. Blueberry plants produce this molecule in order to survive exposure to UV radiation, drought, microorganisms and other environmental threats.
And just as in plants, this molecule can help human skin stay healthy in similarly tough conditions.
In vitro, in vivo and clinical research on this molecule links it to keeping skin smooth, elastic and youthful in a healthy way.
PTEROVITA is the most effective way to put the unmatched anti-aging power of blueberries into your skincare product.
A cost-effective, easy-to-work-with package
Due to poor solubility, pterostilbene is not an easy molecule to use in skincare products. PTEROVITA solves this problem by making it easy to deliver.
Because it is both highly bioavailable orally and topically, PTEROVITA is a perfect ingredient for “Beauty from Within” packages pairing supplements with topicals.

Product composition
PTEROVITA is a cocrystal of Pterostilbene and Picolinic acid, a naturally compound produced in the human body. It is a derivative of the amino acid tryptophan and known to boost the body’s mineral absorption and immune response.
A cocrystal is a new crystalline form that combines two or more different molecules to create a structure with improved physicochemical properties compared to the individual components. This innovative approach to molecular engineering creates a synergy between both compounds.
