Bupleurum Falcatum Root Extract is derived from the root of the Bupleurum falcatum plant and is used in skincare for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and soothing properties, often to help calm irritated or sensitive skin. It contains saikosaponins and flavonoids thought to support skin barrier function and reduce redness.
