TANACETUM CINERARIIFOLIUM FLOWER EXTRACT.

Avoid CAS 89997-63-7 / FRAGRANCE

Tanacetum Cinerariifolium Flower Extract functions primarily as a fragrance component in cosmetic formulations, lending aromatic properties to products. Despite some broader biological research on the *Tanacetum* genus, its specific cosmetic application focuses on scent, accompanied by a significant risk of inducing allergic reactions.

Summary

Fragrance Ingredient

Science

Mechanism of Action

This extract's primary mechanism in skincare is as a sensory enhancer, perfuming the skin or product formulations. While the broader *Tanacetum* genus has demonstrated various biological activities such as antibacterial or anti-inflammatory properties, these are not directly established mechanisms for the *Tanacetum Cinerariifolium Flower Extract* in cosmetic skin applications.

Dusting Analysis

Commonly dusted

While extracts from the broader *Tanacetum* genus are cited for general biological activities like anti-inflammatory or antibacterial effects, the *Tanacetum Cinerariifolium Flower Extract* is predominantly recognized and utilized in cosmetics solely as a fragrance ingredient. Marketing this specific extract for active skin benefits without dedicated clinical efficacy data, especially given its high sensitization risk, would constitute 'dusting' by leveraging broader, unproven claims.

Stability

The active components of the extract, pyrethrins, are prone to degradation when exposed to light and air. To maintain stability, formulations typically require the inclusion of antioxidants, stabilizers, and synergists.

Safety

Sensitization risk High

This ingredient carries a high risk of sensitization; the plant *Tanacetum cinerariifolium* is known to cause severe allergic reactions in some individuals, potentially leading to allergic dermatitis, rhinitis, and asthma. While purified pyrethrins, free of sesquiterpene lactones, are considered safe for sensitive populations, this safety profile does not extend to the general flower extract used in cosmetic contexts, which retains significant allergenic potential.
