Cinnamomum Zeylanicum Bark Oil (Ingredient Explained +

Oil is a hydrophobic (water-repelling) substance that can help regulate sebum production in skincare.

Essential oils are concentrated plant extracts used to give products a natural scent and sometimes offer plant-based benefits. They're a common source of fragrance-related irritation and allergic reactions, especially for sensitive or compromised skin.

Fragrances make products smell appealing but are a common cause of skin irritation and allergic reactions. This includes synthetic fragrances, natural fragrances, and essential oils. Fragrance-free products are the safest bet for sensitive skin.

May cause Irritation

Some ingredients have higher irritation potential, particularly for sensitive skin. Common reactions include redness, burning, or itching. If you have sensitive skin, patch test first and introduce these ingredients slowly into your routine.

Some ingredients are especially likely to irritate the thinner, more sensitive skin on the lips. Counter-irritants used in plumpers, fragrance allergens, and leave-on chemical exfoliants are common triggers. Reactions can include stinging, redness, dryness, or contact cheilitis. If your lips react easily, look for fragrance-free, occlusive balms without active acids or warming agents.

This cinnamon tree is also called true or ceylon Cinnamon. It is native to Sri Lanka.

This ingredient is used to add a classic cinnamon scent to products.
