About

A plant-derived extract used to support the skin barrier and support hydration. It is usually acceptable in well-formulated products, though sensitive skin can still react.

This is a complex plant-derived mixture, usually carrying polyphenols, sugars, lipids, or aromatic compounds, and it is mainly used for conditioning or marketing claims rather than core barrier repair. At typical cosmetic use levels, the main downside is local irritation, allergy, or formula-dependent sensitivity rather than strong systemic risk.
