BISABOLOL

Bisabolol is the primary constituent of German Chamomile essential oil, however another good source is the Candeia tree. It is excellent for calming down inflammation whether it be from acne, rosacea, sunburn or psoriasis. Bisabolol is a great choice for sensitive skin as it protects from daily environmental stressors and the effects of pollution, and gives a smoothness to the skin.

Bisabolol inhibits the enzymes in the skin that are responsible for breaking down collagen, therefore it is considered a pro collagen support product as it also stimulates collagen production. In addition, it is a good source of panthenol, which is a form of vitamin B and is also a natural humectant which means that it helps skin hold onto moisture so it’s less likely to dry out. Finally, formulators enjoy working with Bisabolol as it helps other ingredients to penetrate the skin better!
