What is Scutellaria Baicalensis Extract?

Scutellaria baicalensis (Baicalensis Extract) is a potent anti-aging botanical known for its powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-senolytic properties. It helps eliminate aging cells, slow cellular senescence, and protect collagen, reducing wrinkles, sagging, and oxidative stress. This extract also brightens skin, evens tone, and strengthens the skin barrier, preventing photoaging and environmental damage. In haircare, it stimulates follicles, prevents thinning, and promotes scalp health. However, its bioavailability can be limited. Micellar Cosmetics’ Green Micellar™ formulation enhances absorption, stability, and deep penetration, ensuring maximum anti-aging, regenerative, and protective benefits for youthful skin and strong, healthy hair.
