Cipadessa baccifera flower/leaf/stem extract is a botanical ingredient derived from the Cipadessa baccifera plant, native to Southeast Asia. This extract has gained attention in the skincare industry for its potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Rich in polyphenols and flavonoids, it offers protective benefits against environmental stressors and free radical damage.

The extract is obtained through a carefully controlled process that preserves the active compounds from various parts of the plant, including flowers, leaves, and stems.

The extract is generally well-tolerated and can be suitable for various skin types. However, as with any botanical ingredient, patch testing is recommended to ensure individual compatibility.
