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.
Antioxidant
Fights free radicals — the unstable molecules from UV, pollution, and stress that break down collagen and cause premature aging.
Traditional Use
Cedar has been valued since ancient times in Egypt, India, and the Middle East for its aromatic and preservative properties. Used in traditional medicine for skin conditions, respiratory health, and as a natural insect repellent in cosmetics.
