Also-called-like-this: Curculigo Root Extract, Golden Eye-Grass Root Extract

What-it-does: soothing

A plant extract coming from a nice yellow flower from the shady forests of Asia. It's a traditional medicinal plant with a bunch of magic properties: it's claimed to be aphrodisiac, anti-inflammatory, sedative, antioxidant, hepatoprotective, and even anticancer.

As for skincare, the root extract is loaded with sugars and a phenolic glycoside called curculigosides. According to manufacturer info, Golden Eye-Grass can modulate the internal mechanism of skin's pH control. The right pH of the skin (slightly acidic SC) is really important for lipid-processing enzymes to work correctly and thus to maintain a strong and healthy skin barrier. And a good skin barrier means less sensitive, less reactive and more healthy skin.

Definitely an interesting plant and goodie if you have sensitive skin.
