SKINCARE BENEFITS OF CHAMOMILE
Chamomile is traditionally used for dermatitis and may be applied topically or ingested as a tea. When applied topically, it has been shown to be beneficial in atopic dermatitis and nonspecific skin irritation. Chamomile contains terpenoids and flavonoids that inhibit cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase as well as regulate T-helper-cell (Th2) activation and histamine release8. Chamomile is a member of the ragweed family and has the potential to induce allergic contact dermatitis, as well as contact urticaria.
