Our take
Is Glycyrrhiza Inflata Root Extract a Good Ingredient?
It's Good because it contains licochalcone A, which has supportive data for calming and antioxidant benefits and contributes to a more even look with generally low irritation. Outcomes still vary with extract standardization and dose, which keeps it from a higher tier.
What it does
Skin Benefits
Supports a clearer, more even-looking complexion and helps reduce visible redness with antioxidant backup. Contributes to a calmer, healthier-looking skin appearance.
Where you'll find it
Uses in Skincare & Cosmetics
Often formulated into essences, ampoules, sheet masks, and restorative creams for tone refinement.
Before you use it
Safety
Generally well tolerated, but as with many botanicals there is a possibility of irritation or allergy. Patch test before regular use, particularly on sensitive skin.
