The NRCS botanical extracts have several known applications in skin care. NRCS is currently exploring how Propionibacterium acnes can be treated with different botanical extracts. As well, NRCS is researching the anti-aging effects of the botanical extracts.

NRCS is working on the production of proprietary skin care products in partnership with soap, shampoo, and cosmetic manufacturers.

More information about the NRCS skin care applications will be posted here as research progresses.
