Verdict
Citrus aurantifolia (lime) and Citrus limon (lemon) are known sources of psoralen/bergapten-type furanocoumarins. If the extract/polypeptide retains any free furanocoumarin content, phototoxicity testing (per SCCS guidelines) is required for leave-on products. Supplier COA should confirm furanocoumarin levels below SCCS/IFRA thresholds.
