Introduction / Brief description

We are often asked why we use rosemary as an ingredient in our organic facial care for sensitive combination skin with couperose or rosacea – even though essential rosemary oil is often considered unsuitable for these skin types. What many people don't know: We don't use essential rosemary oil , but a from CO₂ extraction with a completely different effect profile.

Rosemary essential oil vs. rosemary antioxidant

Rosemary essential oil (INCI: Rosmarinus Officinalis Oil)
Obtained from rosemary branches by steam distillation. It contains fragrances such as limonene and linalool , which are subject to mandatory labeling. It has a strong circulation-stimulating effect and can irritate sensitive or reddened skin.
Rosemary Antioxidant (INCI: Rosmarinus Officinalis Extract)
Our rosemary antioxidant is produced through solvent-free CO₂ extraction using pure spring carbon dioxide. It contains no allergens or volatile components and is particularly skin-friendly—even for sensitive, reddened, or rosacea-prone skin. The extract has anti-inflammatory, cell-protective, and antioxidant properties.
