Nettle

Summary

Nettle extract, used in our formulas for the scalp and skin. Its source is an EU ingredient listing, which records its role as clarifying and skin conditioning rather than a measured effect on skin.

Balance in the formula

Nettle sits in our formulas for one job: conditioning hair and scalp. We file it under Hair & Scalp in this glossary for the job we use it for, and the evidence section below says how far its source goes.

Balance in the scalp

The mechanism is the one stated in the summary above, and we have deliberately not extended it. Where a supplier or a competitor would reach for a bigger promise, the sentence we publish stops where the research stops.

Balance in the evidence

Our source is an industry technical paper from a credentialed source, recorded as EU CosIng (clarifying / skin-conditioning). We grade that as supplier and sector evidence, weaker than published research.

Balance and its limits

The research behind Nettle studies the ingredient, not the finished Opuliss product it sits in. It is not a trial of our formula, and we will not present it as one.

Cosmetic claims describe how skin looks and feels. Nothing here is a medical claim, and nothing here treats a condition.
