About
A traditional East Asian botanical powder derived from Japanese mugwort leaves, prized in K-beauty for its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties on sensitive or irritated skin.
Artemisia princeps (Japanese mugwort) leaf powder contains sesquiterpene lactones, flavonoids, and polyphenols which contribute to its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity. It is not subject to specific EU cosmetic restrictions beyond general purity requirements; however, users with Asteraceae allergies should exercise caution. The ingredient falls outside the EU Annexes, indicating no safety concern at typical cosmetic concentrations.
