About

Blackcurrant (Ribes nigrum) juice — a vitamin C and anthocyanin-rich botanical used for antioxidant skin conditioning. Food-grade safety profile.

Ribes nigrum (blackcurrant) juice is pressed from the fruit of the blackcurrant shrub and is widely consumed as food. It is rich in anthocyanins, flavonols, and ascorbic acid, providing antioxidant potential in cosmetic formulations. It is listed on EU CosIng without restrictions and has no GHS hazard class. Because it is aqueous and sugar-containing, finished formulas require robust preservation. As with other fruit juices, possible allergenicity in berry-sensitive users and intrinsic color/staining should be considered.
