White Licorice Root Powder is derived from the dried roots of the Glycyrrhiza glabra plant, which is native to Southern Europe and parts of Asia, including Turkey and Greece. Historically, the Greeks and Romans used licorice for its soothing properties, but in modern clinical skincare, it is prized for its high concentration of Glabridin.
