Rosemary extract (antioxidant) Rosmarinus officinalis

Eco

Germany

Description

CO2 extracts from rosemary leaves are used in aromatherapy and cosmetic products as natural antioxidants with antimicrobial properties. They can partially replace preservatives in order to prolong the shelf life of oils, massage blends and natural cosmetic products. At the same time, they still have very beneficial properties for the skin and can therefore be used as enriching ingredients in skin care products.

There are 2 types of extracts – lipophilic and hydrophilic:

Water-soluble (hydrophilic) used in products containing aqueous ingredients such as hydrolates, water, etc. to stabilise the aqueous phase
Fat-soluble (lipophilic) – when the product consists of anhydrous substances, e.g. only oils, butters, etc.
In emulsions, creams, both are usually used together.

A dark brown, viscous, slightly odourless liquid at room temperature. Thickens on refrigeration or on prolonged standing at room temperature.

It becomes liquid again on warming up to 40 °C.
