About
Stem sap from a traditional Korean medicinal tree. Used for conditioning and soothing claims; typical botanical caveats apply.
Dendropanax morbiferus is a Korean medicinal plant (Araliaceae family) traditionally used in folk medicine. The stem sap contains polyphenols, polyacetylenes, and terpenoid compounds and is positioned in cosmetics as a skin-conditioning and mildly antimicrobial ingredient. Published safety data specific to cosmetic use are limited. Members of the Araliaceae family can produce falcarinol-type polyacetylenes, some of which are known contact allergens, so sensitisation in reactive individuals cannot be ruled out. No EU CosIng restriction applies.
