Burdock extract
Burdock extract is obtained from the root of the plant that grows wild in Europe, Asia, and North America. It features large green leaves, and the flowers resemble small purple thistles. The leaves of the plant are used, but especially the root, which, harvested before flowering, is cut crosswise and lengthwise before being dried.
Features and Benefits of Burdock Extract
Rich in inulin, tannins, and vitamins, burdock root, thanks to its anti-seborrheic properties, is used in cosmetics for the care of oily and acne-prone skin due to its purifying and soothing action.
Moreover, the functional active ingredients it contains protect the skin collagen from alterations caused by exposure to solar rays and inhibit hyaluronidase, responsible for much of the damage to the skin and subcutaneous tissues observed in cases of acne and seborrheic dermatitis.
