Ingredient
Chestnut Puree
Castanea sativa
Benefits
Natural
Chestnut purée has a glorious, creamy texture and a calming effect on the skin, thanks to the anti-inflammatory properties of the nuts.
The variety favoured for blending into products is Castanea sativa, also known as sweet chestnut. It is a deciduous tree that flowers in July with seeds ripening and developing into spiny cupules with brownish nuts by around October.
