CO2 Aloe Vera Extract 5 g

A concentrated aloe vera extract for soothing and moisture-rich skincare formulas

Supercritical CO2 extraction makes it possible to draw out of aloe vera leaves a highly concentrated extract that retains most of the plant's naturally active compounds without any solvent residue and without the heat damage typical of conventional extraction methods. Because of this, the concentrate remains effective even at very low usage rates, which is particularly useful when testing new formulations for professional or home-based skincare production. This item belongs to the CO2 Extracts category, featuring botanical concentrates obtained through gentle supercritical carbon dioxide extraction.

The most common use of aloe vera CO2 extract is in skincare manufacturing: moisturizing and repairing creams, serums, gels and lotions for face and body, after-sun care, formulas for sensitive or irritated skin, as well as hair masks and conditioners that support the recovery of damaged strands. The active compounds of aloe support the skin's natural hydration balance and help calm it after mechanical or thermal stress, which is why the extract is frequently added to after-shave, after-waxing and after-sun products. Beyond decorative and skincare cosmetics, the extract is also used in pharmaceutical formulations for topical applications, and to a smaller extent in functional beverages and food supplements, where the traditional properties of the plant are valued.

The 5 g packaging is intended for trial batches, formulation testing and small home-based production, allowing manufacturers to evaluate the ingredient's behavior in a recipe before committing to a larger volume purchase. The recommended usage rate ranges from 0.5 to 2 percent of the total formula weight, and the extract should be added during the cooling phase, at a temperature not exceeding 40 degrees Celsius, to preserve heat-sensitive compounds. It blends well with carrier oils, hydrolates, panthenol and other CO2 concentrates: in formulas targeting blemish-prone skin it is often paired with Sage CO2 Extract, known for its cleansing and sebum-balancing properties, while in restorative and anti-aging products it works well alongside Rosehip CO2 Extract, rich in antioxidants. In warming massage blends, aloe extract can soften the intensity of stimulating concentrates such as Red Pepper CO2 Extract, reducing the risk of irritation while keeping the warming effect intact.

Store the extract in a tightly sealed container, away from light and heat, preferably refrigerated, to keep its active compounds stable for the full shelf life. Always use clean, dry tools when handling the product to prevent moisture or contamination from entering the container.
