About

Skullcap root vesicles, a traditional Chinese medicinal extract rich in flavonoids, known for its anti-inflammatory and skin-calming benefits.

Scutellaria baicalensis root vesicles are a novel delivery format for one of the most researched botanical cosmetic ingredients. Baicalein, wogonin, and baicalin are extensively studied for anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-aging activity. No EU cosmetic annex restrictions apply to S. baicalensis. The vesicular format may enhance the bioavailability of these flavonoids. The SCCS has assessed related skullcap extracts without identifying safety concerns at cosmetic use levels.

Skin benefits

  • Baicalein and wogonin are among the most potent natural COX-2 inhibitors
  • Strong antioxidant activity protects against UV-induced free radicals
  • Reduces redness and calms sensitive skin conditions
