About

A lemon cell-culture extract with a source-dataset Annex II flag. That makes it a very poor fit for EU cosmetic use unless the restriction data were proven wrong.

This is a lemon callus-culture extract, but the source dataset also flags an Annex II entry (II/358). Under the LuxSense rubric, Annex II means effectively banned for EU cosmetics, so the regulatory concern outweighs the usual antioxidant or conditioning arguments for a plant-cell extract.
