Functions
Perfuming
Added for scent. Can be natural or synthetic. Common irritant and allergen — one of the top reasons people react to products.
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Neutralizes free radicals
Antioxidant protection
Quells irritation
Traditional Use
The outer coating of tea seeds has been used in some traditional Asian skincare preparations, though less documented than seed oil or leaf extracts. It may have been valued for exfoliating or clarifying properties.
