Product Description
Lovage Essential Oil Levisticum officinale natural herbal essential oil for cosmetic formulations
Lovage Essential Oil is a natural essential oil obtained by steam distillation of aerial parts and roots of Levisticum officinale. The ingredient appears as a clear liquid ranging from light yellow to amber with a characteristic herbal spicy aroma. The aromatic profile is formed by natural terpene compounds that give the oil its distinctive plant scent. The oil is fully soluble in lipid media, vegetable oils and fragrance blends. It is insoluble in water and therefore incorporated into the oil phase of cosmetic formulations or emulsions. The ingredient integrates easily into creams, oil blends and balms, making it suitable for both laboratory formulation and industrial manufacturing.

Cetearyl alcohol is heated in the mixture of vegetable oils until a uniform oil phase forms. Lovage Essential Oil and vitamin E are then incorporated and mixed thoroughly. In a separate vessel purified water and glycerin are combined. The aqueous phase is gradually introduced into the oil phase with continuous mixing to create a stable emulsion. After emulsification the pH of the aqueous phase is adjusted to a balanced range resulting in a cream with a herbal aromatic profile.
