Bergamot essential oil (Bergapten-Free) is recognized for its cosmetic properties in the care of oily, combination, and acne-prone skin, as well as for oily hair.
*BF stands for Bergatene-Free / FCF stands for "Furocoumarin Free" and indicates that bergapten (a phototoxic component known as furocoumarin) has been removed by re-distillation.
Therefore, this essential oil has no photosensitizing effects.
