A honeysuckle flower extract with flavonoids. It soothes and refreshes skin. Well tolerated.
Topical application
BLimited evidence. One RCT or several controlled studies with limitations.
A soothing plant extract. Safe.
Japanese honeysuckle flower extract (INCI Lonicera Japonica Flower Extract) is obtained from the flower of this plant. It brings flavonoids and phenolic acids, and in a formula it helps soothe and refresh the skin. It also has a history as a component that helps keep the formula itself fresh. On efficacy it pays to be realistic. The topical evidence is modest, and it acts as a supporting botanical, not a standalone lead active. It adds nuance to a good formula. During pregnancy and breastfeeding it is fine to use. Topically it has no systemic relevance. Tolerance is good: low irritation and low allergy potential, suitable for sensitive skin. As with any floral extract, an individual reaction is possible in sensitized people, though most do not react.
