About

A traditional Chinese medicinal ingredient providing hydration and anti-inflammatory benefits through its steroidal saponin and flavonoid content, though higher doses may affect the liver.

Anemarrhena asphodeloides contains saponins (marketed as timosaponans), flavonoids, and polysaccharides studied for anti-inflammatory and moisturising effects. It is listed in EU cosmetic databases without restrictions, but toxicology studies indicate potential liver effects at high oral doses; the clinical significance for topical use is less clear and warrants monitoring.
