Bisabolol

Other names: Levomenol, Alpha bisabolol

Bisabolol, also known as Levomenol or Alpha Bisabolol, is a natural substance that is most commonly found in the oil of the true chamomile flower and certain species of trees. It is an essential ingredient in many essential oils and is commonly used in the cosmetic industry and in medicine due to its anti-inflammatory and healing properties. Bisabolol is safe for all skin types, even the most sensitive, and is known for its ability to reduce irritation and soothe the skin.

Bisabolol is commonly used in many skin care products, including creams, cleansers, lip balms, aftershave products and makeup. It is also widely used in hair care products such as shampoos, conditioners and styling products. Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, it is also often found in supplements for the care of sensitive, irritated or problematic skin. In medicine, bisabolol is used effectively in the treatment of wounds and in reducing skin irritation and itching caused by eczema or psoriasis, for example. Pressed oils containing bisabolol are often used for massage, aromatherapy and the production of homemade soaps.
