About
Burdock root water from a widely consumed food plant, offering antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits with excellent skin tolerability in cosmetic formulations.
Arctium majus (burdock) root contains inulin, phenolic acids, and lignans with antioxidant and diuretic properties. It is a food-grade ingredient with no EU cosmetic restrictions. Contact dermatitis to burdock is rare. The root water format further reduces any allergenic risk compared to the crude plant extract.
