Product Description

Bisabolol Alpha is a sesquiterpene alcohol of min. 95% purity (typically 97.6%), obtained in Brazil by distillation of the natural oil of the Candeia tree (Vanillosmopsis erythropappa). Prized for its skin-soothing properties, it is a go-to ingredient for calming the look of irritation and redness. With its naturally woody, subtle aroma, Bisabolol Alpha is widely incorporated into skincare formulations to enhance skin comfort, combat oxidative stress, and protect against environmental aggressors.

Ideal for all skin types, Bisabolol Alpha is particularly beneficial for sensitive or stressed skin, making it an excellent addition to post-shave and after-sun products. It also delivers anti-ageing benefits, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, while supporting the skin’s natural barrier.

Usage Recommendations:

  • Solubility: Oil-soluble
  • Recommended Usage: 0.1 - 1%
  • Application: Suitable for serums, creams, balms, after-sun products, and soothing skincare formulations

Harness the power of Bisabolol Alpha for calm, rejuvenated, and visibly healthier skin.
