What it is — Quercetin (INCI: Quercetin) is a plant-derived flavonoid used as an antioxidant ingredient.

What it does — It is included to help defend against everyday oxidative stress and to support a calm, comfortable surface, and it appears in antioxidant and soothing-positioned formulas.

Typical use — It appears in antioxidant serums, essences, scalp tonics and creams, usually at low levels within a wider blend.

Who it suits / good to know — Generally suitable for most skin and scalp types. It is a supporting antioxidant rather than a standalone fix, and antioxidant products keep best stored away from prolonged light and air.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it low risk: a plant antioxidant with low irritation potential. This reflects the ingredient in general and is not medical advice; patch-test if your skin is easily irritated.

Why we grade it Low: Low risk - plant/vitamin antioxidant with low irritation potential.
