Recently, I have seen many bloggers discussing plant ingredients.
All I can say is that no wonder the earth is round, the universe has confirmed to us that everything starts and goes on and on.
Was the last time people talked so much about the feel of plant skincare or around 2010?
At that time, many plant skin care brands were born, and they were mainly Korean skin care products, and many people felt that it was natural and gentler!
I remember that many people were discussing at that time, whether plant skin care products are a new trend in skin care products, and whether they really symbolize being gentler.
Obviously, there are still a lot of skin care products that focus on pure plants, and at the same time, a large number of skin care products add plants as a selling point.
Let's talk about pure plant skin care products, whether it is mild or not, it is to return to its own nature. For example, we have studied acid-base salts and know that both strong acids and strong bases have a certain degree of corrosiveness, which is called irritation for the skin.
Not only that, but mildness is also inextricably linked to the concentration of ingredients and other ingredients in the compound, so when you say that plant skin care products are absolutely safe and gentle, this is called IQ tax.
Time has passed, over the years, many brands in addition to citing some chemical formulas that everyone can't understand, as well as complex terms, have slowly added a variety of plant extracts.
At this time, some people will feel that plant extracts? Isn't this R&D laziness? Extracting things from plants, where there are those solid chemical formulas look useful.
This ushered in the second wave of discussion about plant skin care, whether plant extracts are useful or not.
U1S1, picking a leaf and pulling a grass skin care, can also be regarded as a thing that has existed since ancient times.
Around the 1st century AD, the Greek physicist Berlin mixed rose flower water with beeswax olive oil to make the earliest skin care products.
Women during the Southern and Northern Dynasties of the Wei and Jin Dynasties used bean powder to supplement various spices and medicinal herbs to clean their skin, Wu Zetian washed their faces with finely ground motherwort powder, and Cixi used a variety of plants to spread their faces.
So, you say plant extracts are useless? Obviously a bit one-sided, as for the plant extract ingredients do not seem to be as useful as those chemical formulas, which is even more one-sided.
Although there is a biological barrier between animals and plants, it is impossible to say that people's skin is a certain way of living as a plant, but from the perspective of scientists, it is by finding the "underlying logic" of these plant properties and studying how to apply these characteristics to human skin.
Doesn't that sound cool?
There are more powerful, you see, a lot of powerful skin care ingredients, in fact, are plant extracts.

Of course, this is part of what I casually listed above. There are also many times, you can not see these chemical formula chemical names, you can only see so-and-so extract, this is also a normal phenomenon, after all, not all the effective substances extracted from plants are a single component, many of which include several ingredients.
Of course, this is only our judgment in a perfect situation.
It is not excluded that in order to prevent competitors from pushing out the source of the material through chemical names, the names of the ingredients are collectively referred to as so-and-so extracts.
It may also be that the raw material manufacturers do not want to sell the ingredients they have developed to only one, so they directly use so-and-so extracts instead, and when the time comes, the words are: "The meat of the Chaoshan hot pot is still beef, and you see different tastes in different locations." ”
Of course, it is also possible that the developers do not know what is working, that is, after extracting through one of their techniques, they found that it still works, so it is collectively referred to as a certain extract.
Finally, do you believe in plant extracts?
