Vanillin is an organic compound that forms the main component of vanilla bean extract. It is known for its distinct vanilla scent, which makes it the most widely used flavoring in pastry and desserts.
Similarly, vanillin is also used in skincare to add a sweet vanilla fragrance or flavor.
Some studies show that it is also an antioxidant that maintains the quality of a product and prevents its ingredients from becoming spoiled.
