Wild Yam Extract Water Soluble

Inci:Glycerin, Aqua, Dioscorea villosa Root Extract, Gluconolactone, sodium benzoate & calcium gluconate.

Wild Yam (Dioscorea villosa) has a history of use in traditional herbal practices, where it was valued for its soothing and balancing properties. In skincare, this botanical root has become of interest for formulations focused on skin comfort, softness and overall skin balance, particularly in products designed for mature, dry or sensitised skin.

In topical applications, Wild Yam is appreciated for its naturally occurring steroidal saponins, most notably diosgenin. While diosgenin is not a hormone, it is valued in skincare for its skin-conditioning properties and its role in supporting the appearance of supple, comfortable skin. This makes Wild Yam a popular choice in formulations that aim to support skin that feels out of balance or depleted.

This extract is commonly incorporated into a variety of skincare formulations, including serums, creams, lotions and emulsions.
