Citron Limon (Lemon Peel) extract

Function: Brightening agent, astringent, and antioxidant.

Benefits: Rich in vitamin C, citric acid, and flavonoids that help gently exfoliate, improve skin radiance, and support a more even skin tone. Its natural astringent properties can also help reduce excess oil and refine pores.

Source: Naturally derived from the peel of lemons.

Considerations: Can increase photosensitivity due to its citrus compounds—best paired with sun protection in daytime routines. In high concentrations, it may cause sensitivity in reactive skin types.
