Chamomile German Extract

Matricaria chamomilla

Frequently asked questions about Chamomile German Extract

What is German Chamomile?
Matricaria chamomilla, distinct from the more common Roman chamomile. Recognisable by the deep blue colour of its extracted oil — caused by naturally occurring chamazulene.
What is German Chamomile used for?
Traditionally used in topical preparations to soothe sensitive or irritated skin. The chamazulene content gives it powerful skin-calming properties.
Is it the same as the tea?
Same family but different species — chamomile tea is typically made from Roman chamomile (Chamaemelum nobile). German chamomile is generally used in skincare rather than as a tea.
