About ILEX LATIFOLIA LEAF EXTRACT
A botanical protective extract that helps reduce the feel of dryness and environmental stress. It is generally mild, with the usual plant-allergy caveat.
Detailed Analysis
This ingredient is a botanical extract prepared from the leaves of Ilex latifolia. In cosmetics it is used mainly for skin-protective support. Like many plant extracts, it is a complex mixture rather than a single defined molecule, so the biggest safety considerations are irritation in very sensitive skin and batch-to-batch variability in its natural constituents.
