Verdict
Safe for cosmetic use. Leaf extract is distinct from the prohibited kernel (seed) extract and carries no EU or US restriction. Well-documented antimicrobial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant profile supports use in acne, skin conditioning, and problem-skin formulations.
US Note
No GRAS designation required for topical cosmetic use. FDA has not flagged this ingredient. EWG VERIFIED status requires adequate substantiation due to enhanced absorption concern.
