cascara sagrada extract (Rhamnus purshiana)(buckthorn; sacred bark) is used to add a skin-soothing factor in lotions and creams. It can also be incorporated into a skin care product to protect the skin from harsh external conditions, as well as to improve the skin’s overall condition. It may also be used as a perfuming component. The extract is prepared from this shrub’s bark, which includes glucosides among its constituents. | [EPA Substance Registry System]

Cascara sagrada is the dried bark collected from the small- to medium-sized wild deciduous trees. The plant has loosely
pinnate-veined leaves and greenish dioecious flowers in axillary clusters. The commercial bark is flattened or transversely curved,
longitudinally ridged with a brownish to red-brown color. It has gray or white lichen patches and occasional moss attachments. The
plant grows along the Pacific coast of the United States (Washington, California, Oregon) and also in Idaho, Arizona, Colorado and
other states. It is also cultivated in Kenya. The part used is the bark from the branches and trunk. Cascara sagrada has a bitter, tonic flavor. | [Chemical Properties]

mixture of clove, cardamom, eucalyptus and nutmeg. | [Chemical Properties]
