A plant extract. Safe.
Sage leaf extract (INCI: Salvia Officinalis (Sage) Leaf Extract) comes from the aromatic plant. In a formula it provides polyphenols and tannins, linked to a soothing effect and a mild astringent action that helps temper excess sebum on oily skin. As an active it is a supporting ingredient. It softens the feel of reactive skin and adds a sebum-balancing touch, but the specific clinical evidence is modest; it is not an acne or seborrhea treatment. It contributes inside a formula rather than standing out on its own. Topically it is not systemically relevant, so it can be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding without concern. Tolerance is good, with low irritation and allergy potential. As an aromatic plant extract, a small sensitized minority could react, but most skin tolerates it without trouble.
