About

Vesicles from ginkgo leaves, rich in flavonoids to protect skin from environmental stress.

Ginkgo biloba leaf vesicles isolate the vesicular component of ginkgo leaf, potentially concentrating both beneficial flavonoids and problematic protein allergens. The isolated vesicle form may have different safety characteristics than the whole leaf extract. The allergen protein and potential ginkgotoxin content warrant quality control. Not restricted under EU cosmetics regulation but requires careful formulation.

  • Antioxidant benefits from ginkgo flavonoids

Known concerns
