About
Dill leaf powder — a flavonoid- and terpene-rich aromatic herb used for antioxidant and skin-conditioning effect. Mind fragrance-allergen carryover.
Anethum graveolens (dill) leaf powder is the milled dried leaf of the culinary herb. It delivers flavonoids (quercetin, kaempferol), chlorophyll, and essential-oil constituents including carvone and limonene, giving it antioxidant and skin-conditioning properties. EU CosIng lists the ingredient. Food-grade use is long-established; topical use at 0.1-2% is not associated with significant safety signals, but the aromatic fraction can contribute declarable fragrance allergens. Umbelliferae plants can also carry furocoumarins, although dill leaf is considered low in psoralens compared with related plants. No CIR monograph, no IARC classification.
