Concern level
High concern

A botanical carrot root extract used primarily as a skin-conditioning antioxidant. Cosmetic references describe it as a carrot-root-derived extract with emollient and antioxidant functions, commonly associated with carotenoid-rich material and general skin conditioning. It is typically used at low levels in leave-on and rinse-off products to support formula marketing and contribute minor antioxidant/conditioning benefits rather than act as a strong treatment active.
