Astaxanthin AstaTROL 5 g

Astaxanthin AstaTROL carotenoid lipid soluble ingredient for cosmetic formulations

Astaxanthin AstaTROL is a concentrated carotenoid ingredient belonging to the xanthophyll group of natural pigments. Carotenoids are lipophilic compounds that provide the material with a characteristic deep red orange color. Due to its lipophilic structure astaxanthin dissolves efficiently in oils and lipid based cosmetic systems.

The raw material typically appears as a dense oil based liquid or lipid extract with intense color. It is compatible with vegetable oils, triglycerides and squalane. In emulsion systems the ingredient is incorporated into the oil phase where it dissolves and distributes evenly.

Properties and skin performance

In cosmetic formulations astaxanthin provides warm carotenoid coloration and contributes to rich lipid texture. The ingredient disperses evenly in the oil phase and maintains uniform color in the final formulation.

Industry applications

Astaxanthin AstaTROL is used in creams, serums, oil concentrates and emulsion based skincare products. It is applied in facial formulations, eye area products and nourishing cosmetic systems.

The ingredient is also incorporated into SPA cosmetics, decorative cosmetic systems and functional skincare lines. Its lipid compatibility makes it suitable for private label development and contract manufacturing.

Formula example carotenoid cream concentrate

Astaxanthin AstaTROL 2 g
Jojoba oil 40 ml
Argan oil 35 ml
Rosehip oil 30 ml
Squalane 35 ml
Caprylic triglycerides 40 ml
Cetearyl alcohol 18 g
Purified water 800 ml
Preservative system 2 g

The oil phase is prepared by combining the oils, squalane, caprylic triglycerides and cetearyl alcohol and heating until a homogeneous mixture forms. Astaxanthin AstaTROL is incorporated into the lipid phase and mixed until evenly distributed. In a separate vessel purified water is prepared as the aqueous phase. Both phases are combined under intensive mixing to form a stable emulsion. After cooling the preservative system is introduced and mixing continues until uniform. The pH is adjusted to a balanced level suitable for emulsion stability. The final formulation forms a carotenoid cream concentrate with uniform color and texture.

Astaxanthin AstaTROL is used by B2B cosmetic manufacturers developing carotenoid enriched formulations. The ingredient provides lipid phase stability and reproducible performance in scalable industrial production.

Properties	Inhibits lipid oxidation (prevents skin roughening). Protects the skin from inflammation (prevents erythema). Anti-aging effect – suppression of singlet oxygen. Astaxanthin slows down the production of melanin in the epidermis of human skin. Astaxanthin promotes moisture retention in the corneocyte layer of dry skin. Reducing the secretion of oil on the surface of the skin. Astaxanthin improves skin elasticity. Neutralizes free radicals.
Purpose	Natural antioxidant astaxanthin from microscopic algae, which has pronounced anti-aging properties, prevents skin photoaging and is used for the production of cosmetic products. Astaxanthin is a powerful carotenoid that penetrates the skin and protects every layer of skin from ROS damage caused by sunlight and air pollution. Whether it's for day protection or night recovery, astaxanthin cream locks in moisture along with powerful antioxidant protection. AstaTROL® is a cosmetic brand of natural astaxanthin (5% natural astaxanthin complex) obtained through solvent extraction and molecular distillation. This produces high-quality oil with a low odor. The astaxanthin complex consists primarily of monoesterified forms, followed by diesterified and free forms.
