TOMATOES FOR HYPERPIGMENTATION | WITH ANTI-AGING & SKIN CARE EXPERT VIVIAN MORENO | BIOKORIUM

Tomatoes are acidic in nature due to the presence of four organic acids: folic, citric, ascorbic, and malic acids.  Incredibly, as Glycolic Acid, Malic Acid also has the added benefit of acting as a Humectant, meaning it’s an ingredient that attracts moisture to skin in addition to trapping moisture into the skin, but not to a degree that it can be dependable as a hydrating agent.  Hence, adding BioKorium Skin Water Hydration Cream to this process is of added value.

The acidity of these fruits is inversely related to their maturity. A ripe specimen has a greater pH value, whereas an unripe one has a lower pH value.
