I am very impressed with the herbal extracts in this product. These ingredients moisturize, prevent aging, and especially soothe the skin, even have slight anti-acne effect. So this product should be suitable for normal to oily skin.
For example the ingredient panax ginseng root extract may have potent antioxidant properties and may promote wound healing. It has well-recognized health benefits in herbal medicine. Another ingredient ginkgo biloba leaf extract has potent antioxidant and microcirculation-stimulating effect.
But on the down side, besides water and glycerin the third abundant ingredient is alcohol. Alcohol when in benign form they are glycols used as humectants that help deliver ingredients into skin. Alcohols with low molecular weight can be drying and irritating, even generate free-radical damage. This much alcohol causes concern for almost all skin types.
Another unsafe ingredient is daisy extract. It has no proven skin benefit. In fact topical application can cause severe contact dermatitis.
