Malpighia Glabra (Acerola) Fruit Juice is derived from the acerola cherry and is exceptionally rich in vitamin C (ascorbic acid) along with polyphenols and carotenoids. In skincare it is used as a natural antioxidant and brightening agent that may help neutralize free radicals and support a more even-toned appearance.

Mild skin irritation or stinging | Rare | Possible on sensitive or compromised skin, partly due to acidic vitamin C content. |
Allergic contact dermatitis | Very rare | Isolated sensitivity to fruit-derived components; uncommon in general population. |
Transient redness | Rare | Typically mild and self-resolving after application. |
