How to Use Botanical CO2 Extracts

These extracts are exceptionally versatile and easy to use:

Usage Rates:

Use 1–2% in creams, lotions, balms, ointments, carrier oils, or facial toners.
When blending multiple CO2 extracts, do not exceed 3% total due to potency and synergising effects.

How to Add:

Incorporate below 40°C to protect delicate botanical compounds.
Dissolves readily into oil-based products or the oil phase of emulsions.
Can be added to water-containing formulations only in the oil phase, as they are oil-soluble.

Handling Notes:

Some extracts are pre-diluted in jojoba oil, sweet almond, or fractionated coconut for easier use.
Solid or thick extracts in cold temperatures can be liquified by briefly warming in hot water.
High concentration of botanical compounds may impart a slight natural colour to products.

FAQs

What are Botanical CO2 Extracts?

Full-spectrum plant extracts made using supercritical CO2 extraction or CO2 subcritical extraction, retaining essential oils, waxes, resins, fatty acids, and other active components for maximum potency.

Why are CO2 Extracts superior?

They are free from volatile solvents, heat, and heavy metals. Using carbon dioxide gas in a supercritical state preserves delicate botanical compounds and volatile components, producing a richer extract than steam-distilled or cold-pressed alternatives.

What percentage should I use?

Most CO2 extracts are used at 1–2%, or up to 3% total when combining multiple extracts.

Can they be used in both oil and water-based products?

They are oil-soluble, so they must be incorporated into the oil phase or carrier oils.

What if my CO2 Extract is solid or very thick?

A brief warm water bath will soften the extract without compromising active components or essential oils.

Which extracts are best for skin regeneration and balancing treatments?

Chamomile, Calendula, and Rosehip CO2 extracts are excellent for promoting skin regeneration, soothing irritation, and supporting skin balancing treatments in both personal care and cosmetic applications.
