Science
Mechanism of Action
This multi-botanical hydrosol functions by delivering a spectrum of water-soluble aromatic compounds and trace essential oil constituents to the skin. Cinnamomum Cassia contributes to sebum regulation, pore cleansing, antioxidant and antimicrobial activity, alongside potential enhancement of microcirculation. Syzygium Aromaticum (Clove) offers antibacterial and immunomodulatory effects. Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) provides antioxidant and anti-inflammatory support. Thymus Vulgaris (Thyme), largely due to thymol, reinforces antimicrobial action. Collectively, these components aim to purify, protect, and help balance the skin's surface.

Safety Profile
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Panel has not specifically evaluated this hydrosol blend. However, a related ingredient, 'CINNAMOMUM CASSIA BARK/SYZGIUM AROMATICUM BUD/ROSMARINUS OFFICINALIS LEAF/THYMUS VULGARIS LEAF OIL', was concluded to be safe when formulated to be non-sensitizing. Individual essential oils from these plants, particularly Cinnamomum cassia oil, are recognized for potent germicidal properties but also for significant irritancy at higher concentrations. Cinnamomum Cassia Bark Extract itself may induce skin sensitivity. Specific compounds like eugenol (from clove) and cinnamaldehyde (from cinnamon) are known sensitizers, which may be present in trace amounts even in hydrosols.
