As per Byrdie, chemist Ron Robinson explains, "Marshmallow root extract may provide anti-inflammatory benefits as it helps to soothe irritation as it hydrates skin." He also says that, "Traditionally, MRE has been used to treat skin burns and insect bites. But as scientific studies have determined that MRE possesses antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory effects, the clinical uses of MRE have expanded."
Byrdie reports that, as Howe explains, "The anti-inflammatory properties of the extract make it a great choice for people with problem skin, such as sufferers from eczema or rosacea." Mandy Vance, director of education and esthetics at Dr. Hauschka, suggests using it beneath the eyes, saying, "The eye area is so delicate and prone to sensitivity, and wrinkles are caused by lack of moisture. This makes marshmallow extract a fantastic ingredient to address visible concerns while preventing future ones."
Lorraine Dallmeier, Director of online organic cosmetic science school, Formula Botanica, explained to Glamour that, "Marshmallow is well known for its demulcent [inflammation-relieving] properties." Marshmallow root is also thought to be able to stimulate tissue regeneration, and it's suitable for use on all skin types, even sensitive skin.
Dallmeier also explained that for skin that's prone to sensitivity, inflammation, and irritation, there tends to be good results from cosmetic formulas rich in marshmallow root.
