Aquapuntia®, a treasure born from the heights of the Bolivian Andes

At an altitude of over 3,800 meters, where the air grows thin and the sun scorches an arid landscape, an exceptional cactus thrives. It is from this plant, cultivated in the heights of the Bolivian Andes as part of a sustainable development program, that Aquapuntia® is born. At Pure Altitude, we have always drawn our inspiration from mountain plants—vegetation that has learned to flourish in the most extreme environments. Aquapuntia® is part of this same philosophy: that of a sovereign nature, capable of transforming the harshness of high altitude into a precious resource for your skin.

Cactus from the Bolivian Andes, source of Aquapuntia

Why does this cactus know how to retain water?

To survive in an environment where water is scarce, this cactus has developed an extraordinary ability to capture and retain moisture. Nature has inscribed this faculty at the heart of its composition, which is particularly rich in polysaccharides, natural carbohydrates, and essential minerals. It is precisely this richness that Aquapuntia® restores to your skin:

  • Polysaccharides, which form a true reservoir of hydration and retain water within the epidermis.
  • Magnesium, sodium, and potassium, essential minerals that contribute to the balance and vitality of the skin.

The benefits of Aquapuntia® for your skin

Thanks to this unique composition, Aquapuntia® offers your skin hydration that is as deep as it is lasting, capable of being maintained for up to 72 hours. A comfort-boosting active ingredient that instantly soothes sensations of discomfort and restores all of the skin's radiance:

  • Long-lasting hydration that preserves the elasticity and suppleness of your skin, day after day.
  • Revitalized skin, whose complexion regains freshness and luminosity while smoothing away signs of fatigue.
  • Immediate comfort, for skin that is soft, smooth, and perfectly comforted against daily aggressions.

Aquapuntia Pure Altitude moisturizing active ingredient

The Ferme de Beauté's advice
To prolong the benefits of Aquapuntia®, apply your moisturizer morning and evening to perfectly cleansed skin, using a light massage with your fingertips. A simple gesture that helps the active ingredient penetrate and gives your skin a dose of freshness worthy of the mountain peaks.
