Licorice Root Extract (Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract) – A versatile ingredient for healthy skin
The Licorice Root Extract (Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract), derived from the traditional licorice root, is a remarkable ingredient in modern skincare. This extract is known for its exceptional soothing and anti-inflammatory properties, making it an essential component for sensitive and irritated skin.
Thanks to its ability to calm the skin and reduce redness, Licorice Root Extract offers a natural alternative to chemical skincare products. It helps alleviate skin irritations and promotes a more balanced and even complexion.Additionally, it is rich in glycyrrhizin, an active ingredient that has anti-inflammatory properties and thereby reduces the appearance of skin irritations.
Furthermore, the licorice root extract provides intense moisture and supports the regeneration of the skin cell structure, leading to a healthier and more radiant complexion. Its antioxidant properties protect the skin from harmful environmental influences and help prevent premature skin aging.
The integration of licorice root extract into your skincare products not only improves the skin barrier and its moisture content but also promotes a soothed and clearer complexion. Ideal for creams, serums, and lotions, this versatile extract adds a gentle yet effective touch to your formulations.
The recommended concentration of Licorice Root Extract (Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract) in cosmetic formulations is 2-5% to achieve optimal soothing and anti-inflammatory results. Combine it with other highly effective ingredients such as hyaluronic acid or vitamin C to maximize the synergy effects in your products and elevate skincare to a new level.
Studies on Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract in relation to skin
Reduction of skin irritations
A study shows that a cream with Glycyrrhiza glabra extract can reduce skin irritations within two weeks. The cream, formulated with an innovative emulsifier and 1% Glycyrrhiza glabra extract, demonstrated a significant improvement in skin texture and reduction of redness (Cosmetics Design, 2021).
Anti-inflammatory properties
Glycyrrhiza glabra extract contains glycyrrhizin, which acts as a natural anti-inflammatory agent. This effect can reduce the skin's inflammatory responses, leading to an improvement in skin appearance. Studies suggest that glycyrrhizin works as a natural anti-inflammatory by soothing and protecting the skin (First Base Skincare, 2023).
Antioxidant and moisturizing properties
The extract protects the skin from free radicals and environmental damage, contributing to the delay of skin aging. Additionally, the extract improves skin moisture and texture, resulting in a smoother and plumper skin appearance (Natrl Skincare, 2023).
Clinical Studies and Safety
Various studies confirm the safety and efficacy of Glycyrrhiza glabra extract in skincare products. Regular use leads to a visible improvement in skin texture without significant side effects, making the extract suitable for sensitive skin types as well (Cosmetics Design, 2021; Natrl Skincare, 2023).
