CITRUS JABARA JUICE

Description

Citrus Jabara Juice is derived from the Jabara fruit, a rare citrus native to Japan's Wakayama Prefecture. This unique ingredient has gained attention in skincare formulations for its potent antioxidant properties and potential skin-brightening effects. Rich in vitamin C and flavonoids, Citrus Jabara Juice offers protective benefits against free radical damage and environmental stressors.

The juice contains high levels of narirutin, a flavonoid compound known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. This component may help soothe irritated skin and reduce redness. Additionally, the natural acidity of Citrus Jabara Juice can contribute to gentle exfoliation, potentially improving skin texture and tone over time.

Research suggests that Citrus Jabara Juice may also possess antimicrobial properties, making it a valuable ingredient in formulations targeting acne-prone skin. Its vitamin C content supports collagen synthesis, potentially aiding in skin firmness and elasticity. When incorporated into skincare products, Citrus Jabara Juice is typically used in concentrations ranging from 0.5% to 5%, depending on the formulation and intended benefits. As with all citrus-derived ingredients, patch testing is recommended to ensure skin compatibility and minimize the risk of photosensitivity.
