Houttuynia Cordata Extract is more commonly known as Heart Leaf, Fish Mint, or Chameleon plant.
The components found in Heart Leaf give it antioxidant, hydrating, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Heart Leaf is rich in flavonoids such as quercetin, apigenin, and more. It also contains polysaccharides, the most common type of carbs in food.
Flavonoids have been shown to be effective antioxidants. They help neutralize free-radical molecules. Free-radical molecules are unstable molecules that may damage our skin cells and DNA. The flavonoids in Heart Leaf also help soothe the skin.
Polysaccharides are naturally found in our skin. They play a role in hydrating and repairing the top layer of skin. The polysaccharides in Heart Leaf help moisturize our skin.
Studies show decanoyl acetaldehyde, a component of Heart Leaf oil, is effective at killing bacteria.
The name 'Fish Mint' comes from the herb's natural fishy smell. Is is native to southeast Asia and used throughout the continent for traditional cooking and medicine.

I find that this applies beautifully if I wait at least 30 minutes after moisturizer to apply (so I do it right before my dog's first walk). Otherwise, it's a bit too sticky and tacky, and the white cast doesn't go away.
It works pretty well, but the SPF and texture payoff isn't better than the Hyalu-Cica one, so I think I'm gonna stick with that. Still, this isn't a bad sunscreen if there's Show more

I hate the other Anua heartleaf products but this one made me repurchase the third bottle because it is so soothing to the skin! I get redness around my face because of acne, now I look like I don't have acne because the amount of redness it reduces is insane!
