Rosemary leaf extract is rich in carnosic and rosmarinic acid — phenolic antioxidants that help formulas resist oxidation.

What it does

Rosemary leaf extract is a plant antioxidant whose main constituents (carnosic acid, carnosol, rosmarinic acid) scavenge free radicals in the formula and on the skin surface. Cosmetic formulators add it to slow the oxidation of oils and other antioxidants in the bottle, and as a mild on-skin antioxidant. It carries a faint herbal aroma at typical use levels.
