Citrus Junos (yuzu) Fruit Extract is derived from the yuzu citrus fruit and is used in skincare for its antioxidant, soothing, and conditioning properties, owing to its vitamin C, flavonoid, and organic acid content. It is typically included to support skin radiance and provide mild protective effects against oxidative stress.
| Reported effect | How often | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Skin irritation or stinging | Uncommon | Possible in sensitive skin, particularly with higher concentrations or citrus-sensitive individuals. |
| Allergic contact dermatitis | Rare | Citrus-derived extracts can occasionally trigger sensitization or allergic reactions. |
| Phototoxicity/photosensitivity | Rare | Citrus extracts may contain trace furocoumarins; refined cosmetic-grade extracts generally minimize this risk. |
