FunctionSoothing

What it is — Cryptomeria Japonica Leaf Extract (INCI: Cryptomeria Japonica Leaf Extract), from the Japanese cedar (sugi), is a plant-derived, soothing, skin-conditioning botanical.

What it does — It is commonly used to help soothe and comfort the skin and scalp and to add a fresh, woody botanical character.

Typical use — It appears in calming toners, essences, serums, masks and scalp products as a supporting botanical.

Who it suits / good to know — Often chosen for comfort-focused routines. As with aromatic conifer botanicals, composition varies by harvest and such extracts occasionally trigger sensitivity in reactive users.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it low risk in its EWG-style, ingredient-by-ingredient review. This reflects the ingredient in general and is not medical advice; patch-test if your skin is easily irritated.
