Orange Peel ExtractAntioxidant
- ✓Citrus peel extract rich in hesperidin (a flavanone glycoside), nobiletin, limonoids, and carotenoids with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties
- ✓Hesperidin in orange peel provides vascular and capillary-strengthening activity alongside antioxidant effects
- ✓Astringent phenolic compounds (tannins) in the peel contribute mild pore-tightening and oil-control properties
- ⚠Non-specific 'Orange Peel Extract' INCI may contain trace levels of furanocoumarins from the peel — phototoxicity risk exists but is significantly lower than for expressed orange peel oil
