Curious about the ingredients in your face care routine? You're on the right track. At Veld's, we prioritize natural active ingredients, sourcing the best anti-aging solutions from nature itself—like Brède Mafane. This remarkable plant delivers a gentle "Botox-like" effect, revitalizing your skin for a youthful glow. Explore its powerful benefits.
Native to Peru and Brazil, Brède Mafane thrives especially in Madagascar's islands. Its exceptional taste qualities and medicinal-cosmetic properties have made it popular worldwide, from Africa and Asia to India.
Known by various names including Brède Mafane, Acmella Oleracea, Paracress, Hot Grass, and Bredy Mafana, this versatile plant features small yellow flowers that bloom year-round. We harness both leaves and flowers, packed with potent active compounds.
Its applications are diverse:
Rich in isobutylamides from polyene and polyene acids—especially Spilanthol—this plant boasts anti-inflammatory and anesthetic properties.
Medicinally, it eases mouth ulcers, gingivitis, abscesses, and tooth pain via gargles or chewed leaves (expect a tingle!). Crushed leaf juice also provides soothing relief for skin lesions.
In cosmetics, its mild numbing action creates a "Botox-like" lift that smooths and rejuvenates the face without stiffening expressions.
Brède Mafane has surged in skincare formulations for its unmatched anti-aging effects. Daily facial micro-contractions—up to 10,000—form crow's feet, nasolabial folds, and frown lines.
Spilanthol gently limits these, smoothing skin, erasing its crumpled look, and preventing deeper wrinkles. Unlike Botox, it preserves natural movement while being 100% natural.
Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, it soothes irritation and reduces redness. At Veld's, we feature it in our Age Killer anti-aging lifting and firming cream. It instantly firms, smooths wrinkles, and leaves skin supple—perfect for visible daily results.
Grow your own from seeds available at garden centers and specialty sites (it loves sun and heat). Fresh leaves in sachets suit cooking, chewing, or teas from phytotherapy sites and specialty grocers.
Experience it in ready-made cosmetics like Veld's products, or buy Brède Mafane extract from specialized suppliers for DIY skincare.
