CONNAPIC

A patented active derived from Connarus semidecandrus, a medicinal plant traditionally used across Southeast Asia. It offers strong anti-inflammatory, anti-allergy, and anti-atopic properties. Proven in vitro to reduce β-hexosaminidase (allergy), nitric oxide (inflammation), and TARC expression (itching), while increasing filaggrin for barrier support. An ideal natural active for sensitive, itchy, inflamed, or atopic skin.
