About
Noni (Morinda citrifolia) leaf juice — a traditional Polynesian botanical with iridoid antioxidants used for skin conditioning.
Morinda citrifolia leaf juice is pressed from the foliage of the noni tree. The leaves contain iridoid glycosides, scopoletin, and flavonoids that provide antioxidant activity. Traditional medicinal use in Polynesia is extensive. Oral noni products have rare reported hepatotoxicity cases, but topical application at cosmetic levels has not been implicated. EU CosIng lists the ingredient without restriction and no GHS hazard class is assigned. Cosmetic-specific safety data is limited and the material has a strong characteristic odor.
