Strawberry begins with the fruit of Fragaria × ananassa, a hybrid perennial herbaceous berry in the Rosaceae family, widely grown in temperate zones across the globe. Wild Fragaria species bear similar fruit structures but grow in different habitats. Its bright fruity flavor, subtle tartness, and fresh green aroma make it a natural subject for a modern botanical library.

In the Compendium of Materia Medica
The modern cultivated garden strawberry was not documented in Compendium of Materia Medica. The ancient text records wild snakeberry, a visually similar red berry from the rose family, noted for its cooling properties in traditional botanical use.
In modern practice & our ritual
Strawberry extract contains anthocyanins, vitamin C and polyphenols. In vitro lab research indexed on PMC shows these compounds display antioxidant activity to neutralize free radicals generated by environmental exposure. These remain preliminary lab observations and have not proven therapeutic effects on human skin. We incorporate strawberry extract to craft bright, fresh sensory skincare rituals. Its appeal comes from a gentle fruity botanical experience, not medical claims.
A short note
Anyone with berry allergies, sensitive skin, or who is pregnant or nursing should complete a patch test before use and consult a healthcare provider with questions.
