Peucedanum Graveolens (Dill) Extract is a plant-derived ingredient used in skincare for its antioxidant and conditioning properties, and is studied for supporting skin elasticity by promoting proper elastin maturation. It is generally included as a supportive botanical rather than a primary clinical active.
| Reported effect | How often | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Skin irritation or redness | Rare | Mild, transient irritation possible in sensitive individuals. |
| Allergic contact dermatitis | Rare | Dill belongs to the Apiaceae family; cross-sensitivity possible in those allergic to related plants like celery or carrot. |
| Phototoxicity | Very rare | Apiaceae plants can contain furocoumarins; reactions to refined cosmetic extracts are uncommon but theoretically possible. |
