5 Skincare benefits of Licorice Powder

Licorice is originated from the glycyrrhiza glabra plant. It has been honored in Japan due to its medicinal properties and health benefits. Scientists have recently found out that this root extract is an emulsifier, which allows both water and oil-based ingredients to mix effectively. This might be a challenge because water and oil tend to separate, and the natural emulsifiers become harder to come across in skincare.

  1. 5 SKINCARE BENEFITS OF LICORICE POWDER

  2. Licorice is originated from the glycyrrhiza glabra plant. It has been honored in Japan due to its medicinal properties and health benefits. Scientists have recently found out that this root extract is an emulsifier, which allows both water and oil- based ingredients to mix effectively. This might be a challenge because water and oil tend to separate, and the natural emulsifiers become harder to come across in skincare. Licorice extract improves the consistency of products and more importantly and allows our skincare products to deliver benefits to our skin! Here are some reasons why you need to check out the licorice.

  3. Brightens Skin: Licorice reverses hyperpigmentation conditions where the skin forms dark patches or spots on the skin and makes it look uneven in tone and texture. It further reduces melasma which occurs due to sun exposure or hormonal changes during pregnancy. If you’re thinking of brightening your skin, then licorice extract is the best natural alternative. Sun defense: Apart from helping your skin to brighten up that is already affected by sun damage, licorice comprises glabridin, which helps to stop discoloration in its tracks during and immediately after sun exposure. UV rays are the major cause of skin discoloration. Glabridin present in this herb contains UV blocking enzymes that prevent new skin damage from occurring.

  4. Heals scars: Sometimes we suffer scars from acne or injuries due to no fault of our own. Licorice extract can speed up the healing cycle by hampering the production of melanin, an amino acid responsible for pigmentation in the skin. Although melanin helps to protect the skin against UV ray damage, too much melanin might also lead to a whole issue. Surplus melanin production during sun exposure might also result in unwanted effects that include dark scars and skin cancer. Calms Inflammation: Licorice provides a soothing effect on the skin and helps to ease inflammation. The glycyrrhizin element present in licorice reduces redness, irritation, and swelling, and is used to treat skin ailments such as atopic dermatitis and eczema. Softens skin: Licorice revitalizes our skin’s collagen and elastin supply, both of which are essential to keep our skin elastic, smooth, and baby- soft. Not only that, but this extract also helps to retain hyaluronic acid, a sugar molecule with the ability to retain up to a hundred times its weight in water that keeps your skin plump and bouncy.
