Poncirus Trifoliata Fruit Extract is derived from the fruit of the trifoliate orange and is used in skincare for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and skin-conditioning properties attributed to flavonoids and polyphenols. It is typically included to help reduce oxidative stress and support skin barrier comfort.
| Reported effect | How often | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Contact irritation (redness, stinging) | Rare | Possible in sensitive skin, particularly at higher concentrations. |
| Allergic contact dermatitis | Rare | Botanical extracts can occasionally trigger hypersensitivity reactions. |
| Photosensitivity | Very rare | Citrus-derived materials may theoretically increase sun sensitivity, though minimal for fruit extract. |
