Source and specifications of chamomile extract: German chamomile flower part, apigenin 1.2% HPLC.

Calming and anti-inflammatory: Chamomile extract can inhibit the release of inflammatory factors, reduce skin redness, swelling, itching and other inflammatory reactions, especially suitable for sensitive skin, eczema or post sun repair. Experiments have shown that its anti-inflammatory effect is milder and safer.

Relieve sensitivity and anti allergy: Chamomile extract can alleviate skin or mucosal allergy symptoms caused by allergens such as pollen and dust mites. Some studies have also found that it can enhance skin barrier function and reduce external stimuli.

Antioxidant and anti-aging: Rich in flavonoids that can eliminate free radicals, slow down collagen degradation caused by UV radiation and pollution, and delay skin aging. Partial in vitro experiments have shown that its antioxidant capacity is close to that of vitamin C derivatives.
