Achillea Millefolium Extract beskrivning

_Achillea millefolium_ extract, more commonly known as yarrow extract, is the extract from the whole yarrow plant, a type of flowering herb native to North America and parts of Europe and Asia. It’s a rich source of antioxidant flavonoids, phenolics, and various fatty acids that contribute to healthier-looking skin. Long used in European folk medicine (particularly for internal ailments), research is diving deeper into _Achillea millefolium_ extract’s topical benefit for skin, and the results are highly encouraging. Studies show this extract has antioxidant properties that can rejuvenate skin’s surface, leading to a more youthful appearance. Of particular interest is research showing that _Achillea millefolium_ extract can fight factors that lead to visible skin irritation – essentially, that it is a calming ingredient. Research has also shown that various compounds in this plant’s oil, particularly linalyl acetate, play a role in fading the appearance of dark spots; however, this compound is also a source of fragrance and can irritate skin. For this reason, we prefer the extract form of this plant instead of the oil. The independent Cosmetic Ingredient Review has ruled that _Achillea millefolium_ extract is safe as used in cosmetics at its current concentrations, which range from 0.000005-0.04%. The bioavailability of this extract is improved when added to a glycol base.
