In personal care

A broad term for a class of plant compounds, usually extracted from citrus fruit peel or pulp, that includes substances like hesperidin and naringin. The exact composition varies depending on the plant source and extraction method.

Why it’s used

Included in formulations mainly as an antioxidant, intended to help stabilize other ingredients or support the product's overall preservative system against oxidation.

What the evidence says

Bioflavonoids as a group have been studied extensively for oral and nutritional effects, but cosmetic-specific safety and efficacy data are limited and vary by the particular mixture used, since "bioflavonoids" is not a single defined substance.
