About this ingredient
Sigesbeckia orientalis extract (INCI: Sigesbeckia Orientalis Extract) is a plant extract used in cosmetics as a soothing agent. In a formula it helps calm the feeling of reactive, uncomfortable skin. As a soothing component it plays a supporting role. The plant supplies diterpenes and other compounds with lab antioxidant activity, which backs its use for skin comfort, though independent clinical skin data are limited. Do not expect an intense action from it, rather a softening effect. Applied topically it has no systemic relevance, so it can be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Tolerance is good, with low irritation and allergy potential. It does not clog pores and suits sensitive skin.
