Licorice root extract (Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract) - A versatile ingredient for healthy skin
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 ingredient for sensitive and irritated skin.
Thanks to its ability to soothe the skin and reduce redness, licorice root extract offers a natural alternative to chemical skin care products. It helps to soothe skin irritations and ensures more balanced and even skin. It is also rich in glycyrrhizin, an active ingredient that has an anti-inflammatory effect and therefore reduces the appearance of skin irritations.
In addition, licorice root extract provides intensive moisture and supports the regeneration of the skin cell structure, resulting in a healthier and more radiant complexion. Its antioxidant properties protect the skin from harmful environmental influences and help to prevent premature skin ageing.
Incorporating 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 synergistic effects in your products and take skincare to a new level.
Studies on Glycyrrhiza Glabra Root Extract in relation to the skin
Reduction of skin irritation
A study shows that a cream with Glycyrrhiza glabra extract can reduce skin irritation within two weeks. The cream, formulated with an innovative emulsifier and 1% Glycyrrhiza glabra extract, showed a significant improvement in skin texture and a reduction in redness (Cosmetics Design, 2021).
Anti-inflammatory properties
Glycyrrhiza glabra extract contains glycyrrhizin, which acts as a natural anti-inflammatory. This effect can reduce the skin's inflammatory reactions, which leads to an improvement in the appearance of the skin. Studies suggest that glycyrrhizin acts as a natural anti-inflammatory agent 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, which helps to delay skin ageing. In addition, the extract improves skin hydration and texture, resulting in a smoother and plumper complexion (Natrl Skincare, 2023).
Clinical studies and safety
Various studies confirm the safety and effectiveness of Glycyrrhiza glabra extract in skin care products. Regular use leads to a visible improvement in skin texture without significant side effects, which also makes the extract suitable for sensitive skin types (Cosmetics Design, 2021; Natrl Skincare, 2023).
Traditional and medical applications
Historically, Glycyrrhiza glabra has also been used to treat respiratory ailments and stomach complaints. These applications underline the versatile therapeutic properties of the extract (First Base Skincare, 2023; Potion Organic, 2023).
