Fatigue is more than just feeling tired – it has turned into a growing societal concern. Today’s fast-paced, high-stress environments with constant overstimulation are driving an epidemic of exhaustion, with prolonged fatigue, anxiety, and burnout affecting millions. As the pressure intensifies, so does the need for solutions that support both physical and emotional resilience. Currently, many people experience the “great exhaustion” – a state of fatigue that drains both body and mind and which also reshapes the conversation around skin well-being.
Phytessence™ Green Coffee EC is Croda Beauty Botanicals newest botanical extract with a dual action bringing a positive boost of energy to both skin and mind.

The first sip of coffee – the warmth, the aroma, the gentle awakening of your senses. Inspired by the morning coffee ritual, which awakens the body with a natural energy boost, enhances mood by stimulating feel-good neurotransmitters, and fosters social connection through shared moments of pause and conversation, this new ingredient, derived from responsibly sourced, organic robusta beans, offers an anti-fatigue glimmer-like solution to beauty:
We at Croda Beauty Botanicals are convinced that applying a formulation containing Phytessence™ Green Coffee EC becomes one of those micro-moments of joy, great satisfaction, well-being, and positivity to everyday life that Millennials and Gen X have adopted throughout their days to counter negative emotions. Phytessence™ Green Coffee EC revitalises the skin and enhances a radiant complexion by improving skin elasticity and suppleness, reducing the signs of fatigue and oxidative stress. In vivo studies demonstrated that a cream containing 3% Phytessence™ Green Coffee EC significantly enhances skin elasticity by 6.5% after 15 days and 7.9% after 28 days of application in comparison with a placebo cream, while skin fatigue was decreased by 9.2% after 28 days promoting a more resilient and toned skin.
Furthermore, following the neurocosmetics trend, the extract activates the release of beta-endorphins, a happiness hormone known to be created while experiencing pleasant activities, but also for its soothing effects, to promote positive emotions for optimal well-being. The extract is quantified in caffeine and is COSMOS organic certified.
To highlight, Phytessence™ Green Coffee EC is more than an ingredient, it is a spark of positivity, bringing balance, joy, and satisfaction to brighten everyday life toning the skin and promoting positive emotions.
