Recipe for a wax oil balm with Comfrey CO2 Extract

Jojoba oil 35 g
Cocoa butter 25 g
Candelilla wax 12 g
Comfrey CO2 Extract 5 g
Tocopherol 1 g

To prepare the balm oils and wax are placed into a heat resistant container and gently heated in a water bath until fully melted and combined. Once a uniform oil mixture is obtained it is removed from heat and allowed to cool slightly. Comfrey CO2 Extract and tocopherol are then added and mixed thoroughly until evenly distributed. The finished balm is poured into containers and left to solidify at room temperature.

Comfrey CO2 Extract is intended for B2B use and the development of stable cosmetic systems with high reproducibility, supporting scalable formulation and consistent product quality.
