About

Juice of sweet cherry — a deeply pigmented, antioxidant-rich fruit juice used as a botanical skin conditioner. Gentle and well-tolerated.

Prunus avium (sweet cherry) fruit juice is used in cosmetics as a skin-conditioning and antioxidant botanical. The juice supplies vitamin C, anthocyanins (cyanidin glycosides), flavonols, and natural sugars that contribute mild humectancy. CosIng lists it under skin conditioning; there is no specific CIR review but no record of notable adverse events at cosmetic levels. Safety dossier draws on long dietary history. Cherry pit and kernel contain amygdalin (a cyanogenic glycoside) but the fruit juice itself is essentially free of it. Formulation-wise, the juice is nutrient-rich and must be preserved effectively. Patch-test data indicates low allergy potential; isolated stone-fruit contact reactions are documented.
