Application Recommendations:

• Perform a patch test on a small area of skin before applying to the entire face to check for any sensitivity.
• Due to its concentrated nature, start with a low percentage of the extract and adjust based on your formulation goals and desired effect.
• Ensure thorough mixing of the extract within your cosmetic base for even distribution of its active compounds.
• Store the finished product in a cool, dark place to maintain the potency of the extract.
• This extract is water-soluble and should be easily incorporated into water-based formulations. For oil-based products, it may require the use of an emulsifier or solubilizer.
• Be mindful of the potential for a natural scent and color variation in the extract, which may slightly affect the final product's characteristics.
• Consult relevant cosmetic ingredient safety guidelines and regulations for appropriate usage levels in different product categories.
