Nasturtium officinale extract refers to the extract obtained from the herb and flowers of watercress, which is used in cosmetic formulations. The watercress is a herbaceous plant from the cruciferous family that grows to 80 cm in size and is found almost all over the world. The extract contains mustard oil glycosides and vitamins A and C. It has an antiseborrhoeic effect (helps to inhibit sebum production), strengthens the skin or hair and has a soothing effect.
