About

A well-documented adaptogenic herb used topically for its antioxidant and anti-ageing properties, helping to protect skin from oxidative stress and environmental damage.

Astragalus membranaceus root powder contains Astragalus saponins and flavonoids (e.g., calycosin, formononetin) with recognised antioxidant activity. It is not restricted under EU cosmetic regulations; CosIng lists it without mandatory restrictions. Long-standing traditional use in Chinese medicine supports a favourable safety profile in topical applications.
