What is Bisabolol?
Bisabolol is an organic compound, existing in two forms: α-Bisabolol (mainly found in chamomile and similar products) and β-Bisabolol (mainly derived from cotton bud essential oil). The most common and widely used form is α-Bisabolol, derived from chamomile flowers. It is one of the most abundant sesquiterpenes in nature and a natural anti-inflammatory component found in plants. It boasts the significant advantages of being naturally pure and environmentally friendly, and is widely used in cosmetics.
Benefits of Bisabolol
- Bisabolol possesses anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. This is its most powerful and significant characteristic.
- Bisabolol exhibits excellent stability. This is reflected not only in the raw material itself, which does not easily discolor during long-term storage, but also in its skin-compatibility, providing skin protection and improving skin texture.
- Bisabolol boasts high safety. Besides being safe in origin and composition, it is also highly safe for the skin, making it especially suitable for infants and those with sensitive skin, as it is unlikely to cause allergic reactions.
- Bisabolol has excellent permeability. As a fat-soluble component, it can quickly and effectively reach deep into the skin, while also helping other active ingredients penetrate deeper.
- Bisabolol is a legal cosmetic additive,appropriate use will not cause adverse effects on the skin.

Applications of Bisabolol
- Medical Field: It is mostly formulated into auxiliary and nursing ointments to enhance therapeutic effects and improve skin condition. It plays an important role in skin disease treatment, post-operative recovery, and daily care. However, it’s important to note that it should not be used as a treatment but rather as an adjunct to treatment, and should be used according to a doctor’s advice.
- Cosmetic Field: Besides the pharmaceutical field, Bisabolol is most widely used in cosmetics and personal care products. As an important cosmetic ingredient, such as in face creams, it not only soothes irritation and regulates skin’s active ingredients but also has skin-care benefits for sensitive skin. As an additive in oral care products, such as toothpaste and mouthwash, it effectively removes bad breath and keeps the mouth fresh and clean. As an additive in toiletries, it effectively protects skin moisture and soothes minor skin irritations；It can also be used in perfumes and sunscreens.
Recommendations for the use of Bisabolol
- During the production, storage, and transportation of pure Bisabolol, it must be treated as a flammable liquid and kept away from heat and fire sources.
- The dosage of Bisabolol needs to be controlled. Adding an appropriate amount to the product, although in small doses, has a significant effect, providing anti-inflammatory and soothing benefits while reducing the product’s irritation. However, excessively high concentrations can reduce its effectiveness.
- Although suitable for sensitive skin, it is recommended that users perform a patch test behind the ear before use.
- Regarding the formulation of Bisabolol, our recommended concentrations are as follows: For example: Skincare/Sunscreen: 0.2% – 0.5%; Whitening supplements: ≥0.5%. For other questions, please contact customer service.

Bisabolol is the main active ingredient in Bisabolol Terpenes, but they are not the same substance.
The combination of the two can enhance the product’s effectiveness, but the presence of Bisabolol makes the product gentler.
Regardless of the extraction method, the molecular structure and function are the same. However, there are differences in production methods and costs; choose according to your needs. For cosmetic manufacturers, plant extraction is rarely used; other methods offer higher purity and stability but are less expensive.
