Description

The calming aroma of bergamot is not the only thing praised about this ingredient: it possesses antibacterial and astringent properties, meaning it can be used to cleanse pores and balance skin's sebum levels. It also acts as an anti-inflammatory agent, meaning acne has no chance against it. Extracts of the bitter citrus bergamot, often used as a flavoring, have been shown to reduce cholesterol levels in four recent human studies.
