Goldenseal Extract 30ML

Description

Standardization: 10:1 extract

Goldenseal Liquid Extract – Standardized is a liquid blend of Goldenseal extract and Propanediol produced through a unique manufacturing technology.

Goldenseal Liquid Extract is obtained from the root of the Hydrastis canadensis plant, a perennial herb in the buttercup family native to Canada and the United States. Known for its use in traditional Native American medicine, Goldenseal is now a popular ingredient in natural cosmetic products, particularly for soothing and cleansing the skin. A naturally astringent extract with a gentle touch, Goldenseal is suitable for use in cleansers, soothing lotions and sensitive skin products, as well as after-sun care and bath products. This extract contains berberine, which is highly popular in formulations for improving the appearance of acne. With a rich composition of vitamins and minerals, it is also an excellent addition to rejuvenating formulations, make-up, and hair care products to promote a radiant appearance.

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 Goldenseal Liquid Extract – Standardized is light amber to amber; however, there is a possibility of this color changing, depending on the formulation to which it is added.
