CHAMOMILLA RECUTITA (MATRICARIA) FLOWER EXTRACT
Chamomile extract is obtained by extracting biologically active substances from the plant’s flowers. It contacts terpenoids, matricin and bisabolol, which contain anti-inflammatory and sedative properties; linoleic acid (which is essential for cell membranes to function); antioxidants from flavonoids which, combined with Vitamin C, protect the skin from harmful elements in the environment; and polysaccharides which form a protective layer on the skin to prevent moisture loss.
Matricaria chamomilla extract contains anti-inflammatory properties, moderate anti-microbial effects, relives itchiness and softens the skin. It can be used by all skin and hair types and is also suitable for delicate young skin.
