Functions
Fragrance
Added for scent. Can be natural or synthetic. Common irritant and allergen — one of the top reasons people react to products.
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Soothing
Calms redness, irritation, and inflammation. Your skin's chill pill — great for sensitive, reactive, or post-procedure skin.
Antioxidant
Fights free radicals — the unstable molecules from UV, pollution, and stress that break down collagen and cause premature aging.
Quells irritation
Reduces redness
Traditional Use
Whole-plant chamomile hydrosol has been used traditionally as a gentle skincare rinse and toning agent in European herbalism. Provides a more complete botanical profile of soothing and skin-conditioning properties.
