SAXIFRAGA SARMENTOSA EXTRACT
INCI: Saxifraga sarmentosa extract
What is Saxifraga sarmentosa extract?
Saxifraga sarmentosa extract is obtained from the plant Saxifraga sarmentosa. It is commonly called creeping saxifrage or creeping rockfoil. The plant is native to Korea, Japan, and China. It is a perennial herb, mainly used as an ornamental plant due to its beautiful white flowers. The leaves of the plant are also used in cooking and in herbal medicine.
Use & Benefits:
- Astringent: Saxifraga sarmentosa extract functions as an astringent, which denatures proteins and contracts skin tissue. This reduces the size of skin pores by limiting blood flow to them, thereby reducing the oozing of excess oil, making the skin look clear and tight.
- Antioxidant: Saxifraga sarmentosa extract acts as an antioxidant in cosmetic products, protecting the skin from free radicals, which can be generated within the body or from environmental pollutants and harmful sun rays. Antioxidants replace themselves and stop the chain reaction of free radicals.
- Skin Protection: In cosmetic formulations, antioxidants act as a shield that protects the skin from the damaging effects of free radicals.
- Formulations: Saxifraga sarmentosa extract is used in formulations for facial care, cleansing, and other body care products.
