Lemon Extract 50 ml

Lemon Extract

Lemon Extract is a versatile cosmetic ingredient derived from the Citrus limon fruit. It is celebrated for its invigorating citrus scent and a wealth of skin-enhancing properties. This extract is a staple in formulations designed to brighten, clarify, and revitalize the skin.

Applications in Cosmetics

• Skin Brightening:
  • Lemon Extract is rich in vitamin C, a potent antioxidant that helps to lighten dark spots, even out skin tone, and promote a radiant complexion. It is commonly found in serums, toners, and creams targeting hyperpigmentation.
• Exfoliation and Clarification:
  • The natural citric acid in Lemon Extract acts as a gentle exfoliant, helping to remove dead skin cells and unclog pores. This makes it an effective ingredient in cleansers, scrubs, and masks designed to combat acne and promote clearer skin.
• Astringent Properties:
  • Lemon Extract possesses astringent qualities, which help to tighten pores and control excess oil production. It is beneficial in formulations for oily and acne-prone skin, such as toners and astringents.
• Hair Care:
  • In hair care, Lemon Extract can add shine and brightness to dull hair. It is often included in shampoos and conditioners designed to clarify the scalp and remove product buildup.
• Aroma and Fragrance:
  • The refreshing citrus scent of Lemon Extract makes it a popular ingredient in perfumes, body mists, and other fragrance products. It provides a clean and uplifting note.
• Nail Care:
  • Lemon extract can be added to nail care products, to help brighten and strengthen nails.

Cosmetic Formulation Considerations

• Lemon Extract is typically water-soluble and can be easily incorporated into aqueous formulations.
• Due to its natural acidity, it is important to consider the pH of the final product to ensure skin compatibility.
• When using Lemon Extract, it is advisable to include a broad-spectrum preservative to prevent microbial growth.
• It is advised to use proper dilution rates of this extract in cosmetic formulations.
