Safety Profile
Ormenis multicaulis extract has not been specifically reviewed by the CIR Expert Panel. However, related chamomile ingredients like Chamomilla recutita (German chamomile) and Anthemis nobilis (Roman chamomile) derivatives are considered safe for cosmetic use when formulated to be non-sensitizing. The US FDA recognizes general chamomile essential oil and extracts as GRAS for food use. The ingredient is not on EWG's Restricted or Unacceptable Lists, and SkinSAFE indicates it is 'Irritant Free'.
