When we think of beauty-enhancing foods, exotic ingredients often come to mind. But one of the most potent beauty boosters is already in your refrigerator: carrots. Rich in skin-loving nutrients like Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and chlorogenic acid, carrots offer incredible benefits for both your health and beauty.
Health Benefits of Carrots
Carrots aren’t just good for your eyes. They are loaded with carotenoids, flavonoids, polyphenols, and essential vitamins and minerals, all of which deliver numerous health benefits:- Antioxidant properties that help fight free radicals
- Anti-inflammatory benefits
- Cardioprotective and antidiabetic effects
- Wound healing properties
- Cholesterol-lowering and hepatoprotective effects
Carrot Extract for Beauty and Skincare
- Radiant Skin: Carrot extract is packed with beta-carotene and lycopene, antioxidants that enhance skin radiance. These compounds help reduce dark spots and improve overall skin tone, making your complexion brighter and more youthful.
- Anti-Aging Power: Carrot extract is rich in Vitamin A, which supports collagen production, fights wrinkles, and combats signs of aging by neutralizing free radicals that damage skin cells.
- Natural Sun Protection: Thanks to its high beta-carotene content, carrot extract aids in skin regeneration and protects against sun damage. While it can help increase your skin’s resistance to UV rays, always pair it with SPF for optimal protection.
- Treats Skin Blemishes: Carrot extract contains chlorogenic acid, a powerful phenolic compound that reduces melanin production. This helps to lighten dark spots and blemishes caused by excessive sun exposure or hormonal fluctuations.
In which helwé products is carrot extract present?
Sérum Radieux
The combination of two types of vitamin C—the L-ascorbic acid vitamin C (which is pure vitamin C) and ascorbyl palmitate (which is liposoluble, is very similar to the skin’s sebum and penetrates the skin very well)—optimizes the serum’s antioxidant and skin brightening effects, neutralizes the harmful effect of free radicals and protects the skin against oxidative stress. Vitamine E, ferulic acid and the common sea buckthorn extract optimize the serum’s antioxidant and anti-aging effect.
Carrot hydrosol and aloe vera will also help to give more radiance to your complexion.
Sérum Éclat
The Radiance Serum contains a liposoluble vitamin C that is more efficient, penetrates better and is better tolerated by the skin than hydrosoluble vitamin C. Even though this serum is very concentrated (10% of vitamin C liposoluble), its pH was balanced to suit all skin types.
This serum’s brightening and antioxidant effect is optimized by vitamin E, tomato lycopene and sea buckthorn and carrot extracts, which allows people to have a brighter and younger complexion without suffering any irritation.
Booster d'Énergie
This Energy Booster serum is a shot of hydration, energy and antioxidants. It re-energizes the epidermis thanks to its Mediterranean antioxidants.

Sérum Longévité
This serum combines three very powerful natural antioxidants: vitamin E, polyphenol resveratrol (grape seed extract, polygonum cuspidatum extract) and pomegranate CO2 extracts.
The properties of antioxidants enable the serum to combat the harmful effects of oxidative stress, which is responsible for premature aging (notably linked to sun exposure, pollution, tobacco etc.).
The serum also stimulates the production of hyaluronic acid in the skin for better hydration, guaranteeing an anti-wrinkle and repairing effect.
Resveratrol is also anti-stain and lightening: it helps reduce pigment spots and slow their formation, by reducing the production of melanin. This effect is optimized by the carrot extract.
