How to Use
Recommended Concentration:
Centella Asiatica liquid extract is typically used in concentrations ranging from 1% to 5%:
Solubility:
Centella Asiatica extract is water-soluble, so it should be added to the water phase of your formulation.
If you are using an oil-based extract, ensure that you blend it with an emulsifier for proper incorporation into water-based products.
pH Range:
Centella Asiatica is stable in a pH range of 4.5 to 6.5, which is suitable for most skin and haircare products.
Always check the pH of your final product to ensure it falls within this range for optimal efficacy and stability.
Temperature Sensitivity:
Centella extract can be sensitive to high temperatures. It's best to add it during the cool-down phase (below 40°C) of your formulation to preserve its bioactive compounds, such as asiaticoside, madecassoside, and asiatic acid.
Compatibility:
It works well with other soothing or hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and aloe vera.
Centella is also compatible with anti-aging ingredients like vitamin C, retinol, and peptides, making it a great addition to products targeting fine lines and skin regeneration.
Avoid combining it with highly acidic ingredients in large amounts, as this can destabilize the extract.
Applications:
Skincare Products: Ideal for inclusion in moisturizers, serums, toners, and masks, especially for soothing sensitive or irritated skin, promoting healing, and improving skin elasticity.
Haircare Products: Used in shampoos, conditioners, and hair treatments to soothe the scalp, support hair growth, and strengthen hair follicles.
Body Care Products: Centella can be used in body lotions, after-sun care, and products aimed at improving the appearance of stretch marks or scars.
