About
Giant granadilla fruit — a tropical cousin of passion fruit used for gentle hydration and antioxidant support. Data is thin so we take a cautious yellow.
Passiflora quadrangularis (giant granadilla) fruit is a tropical Passiflora species related to common passion fruit. In cosmetics it appears as juice or extract for skin-conditioning and antioxidant claims, contributing vitamin C, polyphenols and fruit sugars. Listed in EU CosIng under skin-conditioning; no SCCS opinion dedicated to this species. Safety rests largely on food use; topical cosmetic studies are scarce. Reports of allergy are rare and usually linked to the whole plant rather than the fruit pulp. Evidence is low given limited cosmetic-specific data.
