Derived from EU CosIng regulatory status, PubChem hazard data and published research. How we score.
Bilberry leaf water — a gentle European botanical mist traditionally used in skincare and wellness.
Vaccinium myrtillus (bilberry) leaf water contains anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, and flavonoid compounds that provide significant antioxidant protection. While bilberry fruit is widely used in foods and cosmetics, the leaf contains higher levels of tannins and chlorogenic acid. Not restricted under EU cosmetics law, but the leaf extract has been studied for potential effects on blood glucose metabolism. EU Annex restrictions for this ingredient do not apply.
