Complex CO2 Extract for Burns 5 g

Supporting Skin Recovery After Burns With Concentrated Plant Actives

Complex CO2 Extract for Burns is a concentrated blend of plant extracts obtained through carbon dioxide extraction, formulated specifically to support skin that has experienced thermal, sun, or chemical damage. The 5 gram size is well suited for home cosmetic making and small trial batches, allowing formulators to test the ingredient's performance before committing to a larger production run. This complex belongs to the CO2 Extracts category, which brings together natural concentrates that retain a high level of bioactive compounds thanks to a gentle extraction process free of high heat and harsh solvents.

The primary application of this complex spans home and professional skincare formulation, as well as pharmacy-grade cosmetic products designed to soothe skin after sunburn, minor household burns, irritation, and superficial skin injuries. The extracts within the complex help soften the skin, support the natural cell renewal process, and reduce discomfort following skin damage. This makes the product relevant for after-sun care lines, creams for sensitive and irritated skin, first-aid balms, and homemade ointments or gels intended for use after minor domestic burns.

The recommended approach is to introduce the complex into a finished emulsion or gel base at the final formulation stage, once the mixture has cooled to around 35-40 degrees Celsius, in order to preserve the activity of the extracts. Typical dosage ranges from 0.5 to 2 grams per 100 grams of finished product, depending on the desired intensity and the type of base used. This complex pairs well with other products in the line, such as the Complex CO2 Antibacterial Extract, which helps further reduce the risk of irritation and supports skin cleanliness during the healing period. A combination with the Complex of CO2 extracts Regenerating also works well when a stronger restorative effect is needed over larger areas of skin.

The extract is compatible with most carrier oils, plant-based waxes, and light emulsifiers, which makes it flexible enough to include in a wide range of formulations regardless of the base type. To boost the softening effect, formulators often combine it with Apricot CO2 Extract, which adds extra nourishment and improves the feel of the final product on sensitive skin.

The complex should be stored in a tightly sealed container, kept in a cool dark place away from direct sunlight and heat sources, at a temperature not exceeding 25 degrees Celsius. Once opened, it is best to use the contents within the timeframe specified by the manufacturer to maintain the full activity of the active compounds.

After-Burn Soothing Cream

Aloe vera gel 70 g

Shea butter 15 g

Complex CO2 Extract for Burns 1 g

Apricot CO2 Extract 0.5 g

Emulsifying wax 5 g

Preservative 1 g

Melt the shea butter and emulsifying wax together in a double boiler until fully liquid, then remove from heat and let the mixture cool to about 40 degrees. Blend in the aloe vera gel gradually while stirring continuously, then add both CO2 extracts along with the preservative, mixing until the cream reaches a smooth uniform texture. Transfer the finished cream into a clean jar and allow it to set at room temperature for a few hours before applying a thin layer to clean, affected skin as needed.
