Ajowan has traditionally been used for its carminative, expectorant, antiseptic and antipyretic properties.In cosmetics it is used for its strong antimicrobial, antifungal and antioxidative properties.
We recommend application of ajowan extract in deodorant, anti-acne and anti-bacterial formulations as well as in foot care formulations.

The extract itself does not smell very pretty but don't be intimidated by it. It becomes milder and quite tolerable in the finished product.

Dosage: Tisserand recommend a max. dermal dosage of 1,4% for the essential oil based on thymol content. We recommend a dosage between 0,1-0,5% in cosmetic formulations.
