INCI: ORGANIC CITRUS MEDICA LIMONUM (LEMON) PEEL EXTRACT

What it does

Lemon peel extract is included in skincare for its natural antioxidant properties, which help protect the skin from environmental stressors. It may also offer mild exfoliating and skin-brightening benefits due to naturally occurring alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) and vitamin C. Additionally, it can contribute a natural fragrance to products.
