Tropaeolum Majus Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract
What Tropaeolum Majus Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract is & what it does
Cardiospermum Halicacabum Flower/Leaf/Vine Extract is a botanical extract from the balloon vine plant, used as a soothing, skin-conditioning ingredient. It is included to help calm the feeling of redness and irritation and to make a sunscreen gentler on reactive skin. It supports comfort and skin feel rather than contributing any sun protection.
What does Tropaeolum Majus Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract do in skincare?
Tropaeolum Majus Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract is a botanical extract from the nasturtium plant, used mainly as a skin-conditioning ingredient. It is typically included at low levels to support a soft, refreshed feel and to add a plant-based element to the formula. Its exact role depends on the product it appears in.
Is Tropaeolum Majus Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract safe?
Tropaeolum Majus extract is generally regarded as a mild botanical ingredient suitable for cosmetic use at typical low concentrations. As with any plant extract, individuals with specific plant sensitivities could react, so patch testing is reasonable if you have reactive skin. It is used as a supporting ingredient rather than an active.
Is Tropaeolum Majus Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract vegan?
Tropaeolum Majus Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract is plant-derived, coming from the nasturtium plant, so the ingredient itself contains no animal-sourced material. Whether a finished product is fully vegan still depends on its other ingredients and the brand's overall sourcing. Check the product's vegan labeling to be sure.
