Baicalin is a flavonoid found in certain plants, most notably in Scutellaria baicalensis, also known as pink cornflower or medicine cone. It has a number of positive properties, both for medicine and cosmetics. It is anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, has antibacterial effects and promotes faster wound healing, among other things. Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, it is mainly used in products designed for problem skin.
In cosmetics, baicalin is widely used for its ability to slow down skin ageing processes. It is a component of many face creams, face masks, serums and other skin care products. In products for problem skin, it reduces inflammation and promotes skin regeneration. An extract of the plant containing baicalin is also found in some shampoos and other hair care products. In the pharmaceutical industry, baicalin is a component of some drugs, and research into its use in the treatment of some serious diseases, such as cancer, is ongoing. It can also be found on the market as a dietary supplement in capsules.
