Verbena extract (VERBENA OFFICINALIS LEAF/FLOWER EXTRACT) is a refreshing and protective plant ingredient in body care products, known for its antioxidant, soothing, and toning properties. Obtained from the leaves and flowers of Verbena officinalis, it helps protect the skin, improves its tone, and restores its natural balance.
Key benefits of verbena extract in body products:
• Antioxidant protection: Rich in polyphenols (such as verbascoside) and flavonoids, which neutralize free radicals and protect the skin from oxidative stress and premature aging.

• Soothing and redness reduction: Suitable for skin prone to irritation, restoring comfort and an even complexion.
• Toning and firming effect: Acts as a mild astringent – tightens pores and improves skin texture.
• Improved hydration: Supports the skin's barrier function and helps retain moisture.
• Revitalizing effect: Refreshes and revitalizes tired skin, giving it a healthier and more radiant appearance.
• Mild antimicrobial action: Helps maintain clean and balanced skin.
