As it is rich in antioxidants, cosmetic extracts of rosemary can help to protect the skin and hair from free radicals and environmental stressors that can cause the visible signs of premature skin ageing and damage hair.
Rosemary also has anti-inflammatory properties. This makes rosemary extracts particularly useful ingredients in cosmetics formulated for those with sensitive or irritated skin or scalp conditions, as well as in deodorants and foot soaks and balms.
A systematic molecular modelling study was conducted to elucidate the mechanistic background of rosemary anti-aging properties through the inhibitory effects of its major constituents against key anti-aging targets viz. elastase, collagenase, and hyaluronidase.
