Cornflower Extract

Cornflower extract is derived from the Cornflower plant (Centaurea cyanus), also known as bachelor's button or bluebottle. It is a flowering plant native to Europe that is known for its bright blue flowers. Cornflower extract is commonly used in skincare products due to its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties. It is said to help reduce puffiness and dark circles under the eyes, and can also help to calm irritated skin. The extract is also rich in antioxidants and has been shown to protect the skin against environmental stressors and free radicals that can cause premature aging. In addition, cornflower extract has astringent properties that can help to tighten and firm the skin, giving it a more youthful appearance. The extract is safe for all skin types, including sensitive skin, and is commonly used in products such as eye creams, toners, and masks. It is also used as a natural ingredient in cosmetic products due to its bright blue color, which makes it an attractive addition to many skincare products.
