Aichun Beauty Licorice Root Facial Wash & Cream Deep Cleansing Whitening Anti-wrinkle Anti-aging Moisturizing Set

Derived from the glycyrrhiza glabra plant, licorice has long been prized in Japan due to its medicinal properties and health benefits. Scientists more recently discovered that licorice root extract is an emulsifier, which allows both water and oil-based ingredients to mix effectively. This can be a challenge, since water and oil tend to separate, and natural emulsifiers are even harder to come across in skincare.

But licorice root extract improves the consistency of products and more importantly, allows our skincare products to deliver benefits to our skin! No wonder it’s sought-after in product formulations.
