Pueraria Extract Powder is a highly concentrated botanical ingredient obtained from the roots of Pueraria mirifica or other Pueraria species depending on the source material. Rich in naturally occurring isoflavones, this plant extract is widely used in modern cosmetics, nutraceutical products, functional food supplements and botanical formulations. Within the Powder Extracts category, Pueraria Extract Powder is valued as a premium natural active ingredient for advanced formulations.
The extract naturally contains puerarin, daidzein, daidzin, genistein, genistin, miroestrol, deoxymiroestrol and numerous additional isoflavones and phenolic compounds. These naturally occurring constituents make the extract an important botanical ingredient for a wide variety of personal care and wellness applications.
Pueraria Extract Powder is widely incorporated into skincare formulations designed for facial, neck, décolleté and body care. It is commonly used in creams, serums, emulsions, facial masks, lotions, gels, cosmetic concentrates, SPA products and professional skincare formulations. The ingredient blends exceptionally well with Hyaluronic Acid, Collagen, Elastin, Peptides, Ceramides, Coenzyme Q10, Niacinamide, botanical extracts, vitamins and antioxidant complexes, allowing formulators to create sophisticated multifunctional cosmetic products.

It is frequently incorporated into botanical blends together with Soy Extract, Red Clover Extract, Grape Seed Extract, Green Tea Extract and numerous other plant based ingredients.
The extract demonstrates excellent compatibility with a broad range of cosmetic raw materials.

Before incorporation into cosmetic formulations, the powder is generally pre dissolved in purified water, a water glycerin mixture or another compatible solvent according to the supplier's recommendations.
