Chrysanthellum Indicum Extract

Chrysanthellum indicum extract is a botanical used at low concentrations (typically <1–3%) for soothing/anti-redness and microcirculation support, and it is generally well-tolerated in standard cosmetic patch testing. However, as a multi-component plant extract (often containing flavonoids/saponins), it carries a small but real risk of irritant or allergic contact dermatitis in eczema-prone or highly reactive patients, so it cannot be scored as very gentle/inert. Safety Notes: In commercial skincare, Chrysanthellum indicum extract is most often used as a microcirculation/soothing botanical in leave-on serums and eye/anti-redness products, commonly appearing at low “label-support” levels around 0.01–0.1% depending on extract potency and supplier standardization. More performance-driven consumer products (e.g., vascular-look, under-eye, anti-redness concentrates) typically use ~0.5–2%, with the highest observed OTC levels around ~3% for formulas built around this extract (often with glycerin/propylene glycol carrier extracts and solubility/odor-color constraints). Rinse-off products generally sit at the low end because of short contact time and cost/claims strategy.
