CITRUS UNSHIU/CITRUS RETICULATA/CITRUS IYO FRUIT WATER.

The diverse range of bioactive compounds found in Citrus unshiu, Citrus reticulata, and Citrus iyo fruits, including flavonoids, terpenes, linalool, vitamin C, and folic acid, underlies its multi-faceted skin benefits. These compounds collectively provide robust antioxidant protection by neutralizing free radicals and mitigating UV-induced damage. Furthermore, the ingredient exhibits anti-inflammatory effects through mechanisms such as inhibiting NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways. It also contributes to skin brightening by potentially inhibiting tyrosinase, the enzyme crucial for melanin synthesis, and supports skin hydration and texture balance through its conditioning properties.
