Functions
Antioxidant
Fights free radicals — the unstable molecules from UV, pollution, and stress that break down collagen and cause premature aging.
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.
Astringent
Tightens and contracts skin tissue, temporarily shrinking pores and reducing oiliness. That "clean, tight" feeling after toner.

Traditional Use
Fresh or dried rosemary leaves have been used in Mediterranean cuisine and cosmetics for thousands of years. In skincare, the leaves were traditionally infused in oils and tonics for their astringent, antiseptic, and circulation-enhancing properties.
