Our take
Is Perilla Ocymoides Leaf Extract a Good Ingredient?
Rated Good for being rich in polyphenols that provide antioxidant and calming benefits, with reasonable support from in-vitro data and traditional use. It doesn't reach a higher tier because large-scale clinical trials are still lacking.

Helps diminish the appearance of redness and keeps skin feeling comfortable. Offers everyday defense from environmental stressors.
Where you'll find it
Uses in Skincare & Cosmetics
Common in toners, essences, and soothing serums aimed at sensitive or easily irritated skin.
Before you use it
Safety
Generally well tolerated, but plant extracts can trigger sensitivity or allergy, especially in those reactive to mint or shiso family plants. Patch test if you have easily irritated skin.
