The papaya fruit extract is a potent anti-oxidant since it contains malic acid, Vitamin C, and Citric acid. It is known to reduce aging effects, wrinkles, fine lines from the skin. It also stimulates the production of collagen in the skin. It also consists of enzyme papain that dissolves protein keratin.

When used in hair it removes dead cells from the scalp and reduces hair fall caused by infections like dandruff. It enhances the growth of healthy hair. It makes the skin looking more even-toned and brighter. It is used in formulations of shampoos, creams, lotions, and other skin and hair care products.
