Purple açaí berry extract that adds antioxidants to skin’s surface. A supporting extract, usually in small amounts.
What it does
It adds antioxidants, mainly the deep-purple pigments of the açaí berry, to the skin’s surface. There’s usually only a little in a product, as a supporting extract next to better-studied ingredients like vitamin C or ferulic acid.
The evidence, graded
expert consensusUS safety reviewers (2024) assessed 8 ingredients from açaí and juçara palms, used mostly to condition skin. Lab allergy tests of açaí fruit extract were negative. A face product with 3% açaí pulp powder caused no allergy in 214 people, though one person’s skin reddened during the test. They judged all 8 safe as used and asked makers to limit impurities.Johnson 2024 · International Journal of Toxicology ↗
