AxRose™ Cape Camomile
Collection: AxRose™ Stabilised Oils | Product code: FG-AxRose-CapeCam-004
Ingredient format
Steam distilled oil of the Eriocephalus punctulatus (Cape Camomile). Sourced from the Cape Floral Kingdom of the Western Cape region where rainfall is the highest.
Why it is distinctive
A 100% pure essential oil sourced from the Cape Floral Kingdom and standardized to not less than 3% linalyl acetate. This powerful chemical has demonstrated significant anti-inflammatory properties, a leading cause of many skin conditions. With the additional standardization of trans-nerolidol to >1%, this concentration is proven to modify the stratum corneum lipid organisation to substantially increase the delivery of other topical molecules.
Benefit territory
Reduced inflammation, support the penetration of actives into the skin.
Evidence snapshot

Best-fit applications
Serums, facial and body oils, shampoo, body wash, mists, fragrances.
