Goldenseal extract is derived from the roots of the Goldenseal plant, scientifically known as Hydrastis Canadensis. This perennial herb is native to North America and has a long history of traditional use among indigenous peoples for its medicinal and skin care properties. It is blended into Propanediol, 100% naturally derived humectant which is used for its moisturizing and emollient properties and its natural solvent properties, making it an efficient active carrier for extract or other actives. It has gained popularity in the cosmetics and skin care industry for its numerous beneficial properties. Goldenseal root extract contains berberine, a natural compound known for its antibacterial and antimicrobial properties. This makes it a valuable ingredient in products designed to combat acne, blemishes and other skin disorders. Also renowned for its anti-inflammatory properties, which can help soothe irritated or inflamed skin and help to reduce swelling and redness. Goldenseal is rich in antioxidants such as vitamin C and other phytochemicals, which help neutralize free radicals and protect the skin from oxidative damage. This can aid in preventing premature aging, fine lines, and wrinkles.
