Ingredient Spotlight: Heartleaf

With new products, brands, and trends popping up every day, beauty can be overwhelming. Now, a new K-beauty ingredient is on the rise and is sure to make its way into routines in no time: Heartleaf. An anti-inflammatory powerhouse that is a savior for sensitive, irritated skin. 

What is Heartleaf? 

Additionally, known as the chameleon plant, this type of flower in Southeast Asia has been traditionally used both on the skin and in food. Filled with rich compounds called flavonoids, carries anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and antioxidant properties. 

What Are The Benefits? 

These anti-inflammatory properties make it a perfect ingredient for those who have sensitive skin or specific skin conditions such as eczema or dermatitis. As it can fight irritation by toning down acne and redness. Heartleaf also serves as a humectant by increasing hydration by drawing in and trapping moisture within the skin. This helps maintain the skin barrier to balance and soothe dryness and irritation. 

How to Use Heartleaf in Your Routine? 

Heartleaf can be found in a variety of different products, including creams, serums, toners, and face masks. In other words, when and how often you use heartleaf will depend on the type of product it’s made into. However, since its gentle, it’s safe to use daily during the day and night. Moreover, incorporating heartleaf into your skincare routine can provide consistent benefits for your skin.

Heartleaf can pair well with active products, since it helps reduce irritation following the use of active ingredient products such as retinol or chemical peels. In addition, other soothing anti-inflammatory components such as aloe vera work perfectly together to boost results.
