Eriobotrya Japonica (loquat) leaf extract is a plant-derived ingredient rich in triterpenes (notably corosolic and ursolic acid) and polyphenols, used in skincare for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and sebum-regulating properties. It is typically included to soothe skin and protect against oxidative stress.
