Lecithin 25 ml

A Phospholipid Blend Behind Stable Emulsions and Capsules

Lecithin is a natural blend of phospholipids most commonly derived from sunflower or soybean sources, and it belongs to the category of Emulsifiers, where it acts as a bridge between water and oil phases. This property makes it valuable across several industries at once, including food production, pharmaceuticals, and skincare formulation. The 25 ml packaging is convenient for home experiments, trial batches, and small laboratory tests where formulators want to evaluate performance before scaling up production.

The largest global demand for lecithin comes from the food industry, where it serves as an emulsifier in chocolate, margarine, mayonnaise, baked goods, and confectionery, reducing the viscosity of chocolate mass and improving overall texture. In pharmaceuticals, lecithin is used to produce soft gel capsules, liposomal delivery systems for active compounds, and dietary supplements that improve absorption of vitamins and minerals. Within cosmetic manufacturing it is valued for forming liposomes and stabilizing oil in water emulsions, which is why it frequently appears in facial creams, serums, and masks.

In home formulations lecithin is typically added to the oil phase during emulsion creation at a temperature around 60-70 degrees Celsius, after which the water phase is gradually introduced at a similar temperature while mixing thoroughly until uniform. Recommended dosage usually ranges from 1 to 5 percent of total product weight, depending on the desired texture and emulsion stability. Lecithin pairs well with other emulsifying ingredients, such as Emulsifier EMULPHARMA 135, which helps reinforce stability and achieve a lighter finish. It can also be combined with Emulsifier Hostaphat KL 340 D to create durable cream bases with an extended shelf life.

Lecithin is also used in household chemical products to stabilize cleaning formulations and in candle making to improve wax structure. In fragrance compositions it is sometimes used as a binding element when working with waxes, for example alongside Jasmine Grandiflorum Wax, helping distribute aromatic components more evenly throughout the base. Lecithin should be stored in a tightly sealed container, in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight, which helps preserve its properties over time.

When working with a small package it is convenient to dose the ingredient precisely using a pipette or syringe, which is especially useful for test batches and small handmade production runs, including occasional cold process soap samples where lecithin serves as a supportive softening element.

Liposomal Facial Serum

Lecithin 5 g

Distilled water 80 ml

Glycerin 5 ml

Aloe extract 5 ml

Preservative 1 ml

Dissolve the lecithin in a small amount of warm water at around 40 degrees Celsius, stirring thoroughly until a uniform gel-like mass forms. Gradually add the remaining water, glycerin, and aloe extract, mixing until fully dissolved. Finally add the preservative, pour the finished serum into a clean dispenser bottle, and let it rest for a few hours before use.
