About
Sea fennel (Crithmum maritimum) powder — a coastal Apiaceae botanical used for mineral, carotenoid, and antioxidant claims.
Crithmum maritimum (sea fennel, rock samphire) powder is produced from the aerial parts of this coastal Apiaceae (carrot family) plant. It is rich in minerals, vitamin C, carotenoids, and characteristic essential oil constituents including dillapiole, limonene, and sabinene. EU CosIng lists it without restriction and no GHS hazard class is assigned to the bulk powder. Essential-oil terpenes can sensitize fragrance-sensitive users, and cosmetic-specific safety literature is still limited.
