Rue extract

INCI: Ruta graveolens leaf extract

Rue – exceptionally rich in the flavonoid rutin, rue was once a common ingredient in the home pharmacy. With its wealth of tannins, fatty acids and minerals, rue extract shines in skincare products formulated to combat redness and irritation. Rue is also a potent aromatic: the oil of its feathery leaves is an intense natural fragrance with many cosmetic and industrial applications.
