In cosmetic formulations, arrowroot powder acts as a thickener, softener and opacifier. Here's why it's a must have for your formulations:

π In anhydrous products like balms and salves, it reduces greasiness creating a non-greasy product that absorbs fast.
π In dry powder formulations such as baby powders, foot powders and face powders, it gives a light, soft and silky finish that provides a drying and freshening feeling.
π Used in lipbalms to enhance texture, mattify or alter the shade of colorants such as mica pigments.
π Incorporate in face masks esp for oily, acne-prone and sensitive skin containing clays, botanical extracts, fruit extracts etc
π Acts as an excellent substitute for talc or cornstarch in cosmetic formulations.

What if I told you the reason why your formulations are not consistent is because you don't measure the right quantities of your ingredients.
How? Using the right quantities of each of the ingredients in a formula determines the consistency of the final product as well as whether the product will work or not.
That's why we have these digital scales to ensure you're using the right measurements!

Product Name: Bearberry Extract
Appearance: Colorless liquid
Solubility: soluble in water
Usage rate: 1-10%
Bearberry extract is an extract of the leaves of the bearberry plant in glycerin. These leaves contain phytochemicals giving it antibacterial and antioxidant properties.
It's used as a skin lightening agent to help fade dark spots and skin discoloration caused by sun damage or hormonal conditions. It contains up to 17% arbutin, which is regarded as a safer and gentler alternative to hydroquinone when it comes to fading hyperpigmentation.
When used regularly, it can help fade even the most stubborn pigmented areas of the skin. This in turn leads to a brighter complexion and even skin tone.
Bearberry extract also acts as an astringent and helps hydrate the skin.
Formulation tip: Include this extract at the recommended usage rate in lotions, creams, serums, toners etc
Have you used bearberry extract in your formulations before? Let us knowπ

Product Name: Sea buckthorn oil
Extraction method: Cold pressed
Country of origin: Ukraine
Have you heard of sea buckthorn oil before? If not, then you're about to meet your next favorite carrier oilπ
Sea buckthorn oil is extracted from the sea buckthorn plant (usually the berries and the seeds). It's one of the best carrier oils for the skin and a bit pricy as it's a vitamin-rich and nutrient-dense skin-loving oil.
π A wonderful oil for dry chapped skin. This oil is rich in vitamin E and all the four types of omega fatty acids (omega 3,6, 7 &9) that deeply hydrates and plumps the skin. These fatty acids also help repair the skin barrier making it helpful in inflammatory skin conditions such as acne, psoriasis and eczema.
π Contains palmitic and stearic acids that firm and reduce excessive water loss from the skin, making it an ideal ingredient choice in mature/ anti aging skincare formulations.
π Contains antioxidants including superoxide dismutase (SOD) the most powerful antioxidant that protect the skin from damage by free radicals.
π Helps improve hyperpigmentation as well as lighten dark spots.
π
Suitable for all skin types
π
This oil can stain so use sparingly or mix with other carrier oils before use.
