Geranium CO2 extract 5 g

Why formulators choose geranium CO2 concentrate for skincare and fragrance blends

Geranium CO2 extract is produced using liquefied carbon dioxide technology without solvents, which preserves a remarkably complete range of the plant's biologically active compounds in the finished concentrate. This dense concentrate carries a rich profile of aromatic constituents, tannins and natural antioxidants that are valued across skincare manufacturing, fragrance composition and products for relaxing body treatments. The 5 g size is well suited for home-based formulation and small test batches, letting a formulator trial the concentrate in a recipe before scaling up to larger volumes. This product belongs to the category of CO2 Extracts, which brings together natural concentrates for both professional and home formulation work.

The primary use of geranium CO2 lies in facial and body skincare, particularly formulas aimed at oily, combination and blemish-prone skin, where the extract is appreciated for helping balance the skin's appearance and give it a refined, cared-for look. It is equally popular in toning skincare products, anti-aging creams, and in the fragrance industry, where geranium notes serve either as a standalone accord or as a base for floral compositions. In aromatherapy applications the concentrate is used to build relaxing blends and massage formulations. Typical dosage runs from 0.1 to 0.5 percent of the total product mass, and it is best added at the final formulation stage at temperatures not exceeding 40 degrees Celsius, which helps preserve volatile compounds and the activity of the beneficial constituents.

Geranium extract combines well with other CO2 concentrates and carrier oils, allowing formulators to build multi-component recipes with a more complex effect. Interesting pairings can be made with Sea Buckthorn CO2 Extract, which contributes nourishing and restorative properties, or with Rosemary CO2 Extract, which adds a toning, refreshing quality to the composition. For extra softness and hydration, formulators often bring in CO2 Aloe Vera Extract, which pairs nicely with geranium in creams and serums.

Store the extract in a tightly sealed container away from direct light, ideally in a refrigerator between 4 and 10 degrees Celsius, which extends shelf life and keeps the concentrate's original properties intact. Before use, gently warm the bottle in a water bath to room temperature to make dosing the thick concentrate easier.
