About this ingredient
Physalis Pubescens Fruit Juice is the juice of the physalis fruit. Its INCI name is Physalis Pubescens Fruit Juice. In a formula it provides water, natural sugars and antioxidants, and acts as a humectant and soothing ingredient for the skin. On efficacy, the fair call is to place it as a supportive ingredient. It hydrates the surface and softens the feel, but the evidence base for effects beyond that is modest. As a mild humectant and soothing agent it does the job; it is not a corrective active. Applied topically it has no systemic relevance, so it can be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Tolerance is high, with a low irritation and allergy potential, and it suits sensitive skin. Most people see no reaction.
