About
Small-leaved linden flowers with a long history in traditional European skincare for their calming, antioxidant-rich properties.
Tilia Cordata Flower is the dried flower of small-leaved linden (Tilia cordata, family Tiliaceae). It contains flavonoids (including kaempferol, quercetin, and their glycosides), tannins, and volatile oils including farnesol.
