About

Skin benefits

  • Sesquiterpene antioxidants
  • Traditional antibacterial use
  • Phenolic skin-conditioning compounds

Known concerns

  • Lauraceae family contains essential-oil allergens
  • Strychnine-evoking species name only — chemistry actually distinct, but supplier confusion possible
  • Limited cosmetic toxicology
  • Aromatic content can sensitize
