Overview

Ingredient Profile

Naringin is a flavonoid antioxidant found in citrus fruits and other plants, known for its soothing properties. As an antioxidant, it helps bolster the skin's natural defenses against environmental stressors like UV light and pollution by supporting existing antioxidant activity. Typically used in concentrations between 0.1–0.5% in cosmetics, naringin can also be included at lower levels to stabilize other antioxidants and maintain formula integrity. It is a glycoside of naringenin, which shares similar benefits and offers enhanced lipid protection.
