About

Ashwagandha leaf powder — adaptogenic herb for stress-resistant skin.

Withania somnifera (ashwagandha) leaf powder contains withanolides, steroidal lactones that have demonstrated adaptogenic and anti-inflammatory activity in studies. Under EU Cosmetics Regulation 1223/2009, it is not subject to specific restrictions and is not listed in any Annex. Withanolide content is monitored in some jurisdictions; the leaf powder form presents a lower concentration concern than root extracts. Not a recognised fragrance or major allergen in the EU context.
