Lens Esculenta (Lentil) Fruit Extract is a plant-derived ingredient rich in amino acids, vitamins, and polysaccharides used in skincare for moisturizing, soothing, and antioxidant benefits. It is sometimes marketed for pore-refining and sebum-regulating effects, though robust clinical evidence is limited.
