Who it's for
Description
Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract is a botanical ingredient made from the leaves of the ginkgo tree, one of the oldest tree species on earth. In skincare, it’s valued mainly for its antioxidant content, which helps defend skin from everyday environmental stressors like pollution and UV-related free radical damage. It’s also used for its soothing, refreshing feel and may support a healthier-looking complexion by helping skin appear less dull and more energized.
For hair and scalp products, ginkgo biloba leaf extract is often included to add a lightweight, plant-based conditioning touch and to support a comfortable scalp feel. People with normal, combination, or tired-looking skin may especially appreciate it, and it shows up in anti-aging, brightening, and “revitalizing” formulas. Because it’s a botanical extract, sensitive skin types may want to patch test first, since any plant ingredient can occasionally cause irritation or allergy in some users.
