Willow bark, sourced from various willow trees has been a natural remedy since ancient civilization. Greeks, Sumerians, and Egyptians used it for pain relief and inflammation reduction. In skincare today, willow bark extract is recognized for its anti-microbial and exfoliating effects on skin, particularly blemish prone and oily skin. As an exfoliant, it helps remove excess oil and dead skin cells from the surface. This can improve your skin's texture, making your appearance brighter and smoother. Contains salicylic acid, an organic chemical which helps unclog pores and reduce chances of breakouts. Additionally, it can help even your skin tone, improve elasticity, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
