White Willow Bark Extract

White Willow Bark Extract

Willow bark extract has been used for thousands of years as an anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesic. Willow bark extracts also are widely used in sports performance and weight loss products presumably because of anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities, although no human studies have been published that specifically and directly document beneficial effects.

Key Attributes:

  • Gently exfoliates: Willow bark extract can provide a gentle exfoliation to reveal more radiant, healthy-looking skin
  • Calms redness: Because of salicin’s anti-inflammatory properties, Petrillo says it can also help alleviate redness and irritation.
  • Locks in moisturize: The antioxidants also retain moisture, which allows the skin to stay healthy and hydrated.
  • Reduces signs of aging: Thanks to the polyphenols and flavonoids (powerful antioxidants) that help our skin fight against free radical damage.

Applications:

  • Because all of these ingredients allow for a more refreshed, youthful complexion, it makes sense why you might find willow bark extract included in all kinds of skincare products, like cleansers, moisturizers, toners, masks, and more.
