What is Licorice Extract?
Licorice extract (mulethi) is obtained from the root of the licorice plant and it is known as one of the oldest herbal remedies in the world. This aromatic herb grows in parts of Asia and Europe. It contains glycyrrhizin and was first used in the 1700s to make candy (1). Over the centuries, it has become an ingredient used to make confections, drinks, medicines, and beauty products.
Licorice should be used sparingly or mixed with other ingredients for safe and effective results. When used in just the right amount (not too much please), licorice extract can be highly beneficial for your skin.

Here are some of the benefits you will reap when you incorporate licorice extract into your skincare routine.

Sunburn, age spots, and other skin damage are caused by UV rays, and using licorice extract helps to block your skin from direct sunlight. It also helps to reduce the damage that’s already been caused to your skin.

If you have sensitive skin or you experience allergies and irritation, then using licorice extract can help to soothe your skin. This would relieve your skin and calm your redness, itching, and inflammation.

Liquorice regenerates collagen and elastin that the skin needs to stay soft, smooth, plump, and elastic. It contains amino acid (2) that helps to hydrate and moisturise the skin which makes it supple.
