Bisabolol (Alpha)
This natural chemical is an unsaturated monocyclic sesquiterpene alcohol, partly responsible for the calming effect of chamomile essential oil, but will not lead to sensitization or allergic reactions. Bisabolol increases skin hydration, improves overall skin tone and greatly reduces redness and irritation. Bisabolol is well absorbed and also facilitates the absorption of other ingredients. When applied to skin that has been damaged by laser treatment, bisabolol increased skin hydration, surface lipids, skin elasticity and decreased trans-epidermal water loss.
