About
A plant extract with antioxidant potential, but Angelica-family materials deserve caution because of coumarin-related reactivity.
ANGELICA SHIKOKIANA LEAF/ROOT EXTRACT is a botanical extract from an Apiaceae species. Angelica-related plants can contain coumarins or furanocoumarin-like constituents that make them more irritating or photosensitizing than bland botanical extracts, even if the exact profile depends on the species and extraction method. That keeps the score moderate instead of high.
