Standardization: 0.305% Rosmarinic Acid
Lemon Balm Liquid Extract – Standardized is a liquid blend of Lemon Balm Extract and Propanediol produced through a unique manufacturing technology.
Rich in flavonoids and polyphenols, Lemon Balm has strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory qualities that help balance and protect the skin. This Liquid Extract is standardized for Rosmarinic Acid (0.305%), a polyphenolic compound found naturally in botanicals of the mint family such as Lemon Balm, Rosemary, and Sweet Basil. Added to skin and hair care formulations, it helps improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while also supporting the decongesting of the skin. Lemon Balm Extract's astringent qualities are also beneficial for those with oily skin. This makes it excellent in many cosmetic applications, including anti-aging, anti-acne, and cleansing products.
With a plant-based origin, Propanediol is a biodegradable and petrochemical-free solvent that is NPA approved, making it an excellent corn sugar-derived alternative to petroleum-based Glycols for hair- and skincare formulations. It offers benefits and functionalities that include improved emollience, enhanced viscosity, non-irritating properties, exceptional sensory characteristics, clarity, and anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, among many more.
The characteristic color of this botanical extract imbues natural cosmetic formulations with its innate hue. This means that the product colors that were formerly possible to obtain only through the use of artificial and often objectionable constituents can now be achieved through plant-based ingredients that impart not only their beneficial, skin health-enhancing properties but also their individual natural colors. It is strongly recommended that small batch trials be conducted to determine the dosage required to achieve the desired shade imbued by the extract.
The original color of Lemon Balm Liquid Extract – Standardized is Dark Orange Brown, however, there is a possibility of this color changing, depending on the formulation to which it is added.
Recommended Usage Level: 1-3% in skincare products.
Storage: Stable when stored in a cool, dry place.
