Product Description
Sourcing and specification details for international buyers
Lavender Oil Extract is produced in France from Lavandula angustifolia flowers by oil extraction at 50-60 °C for 36-72 hours. The resulting oily liquid carries the INCI name Lavandula Angustifola (Lavender) Oil Extract and is supplied in 50 ml containers. Oil Extracts of this type meet the requirements of cosmetic laboratories and food manufacturers who need consistent botanical raw material. The product remains stable when stored cool, dry and protected from light until December 2028.
Technical parameters for formulation work
The extract is fat-soluble and introduced at 0.05-5 % in the active phase. Processing temperature must not exceed 40 °C. It integrates easily into emulsions and oil-based systems without altering viscosity or requiring additional solubilisers. Botanical Extracts are selected for their reliability in large-scale production.
Applications in cosmetics, dietary supplements and food production
Manufacturers incorporate the ingredient into creams, serums, hair masks and body care. It is also purchased as botanical raw material for dietary supplements and functional foods: beverage producers, confectionery factories and supplement brands worldwide use it in their formulations. Both small formulators and industrial facilities order the product in retail and wholesale quantities. Lavender Oil Extract 5 ml serves well for pilot batches before scaling up.
Compatibility and processing notes
The ingredient works with most plant oils and waxes. It should be added after the mixture has cooled below 40 °C to preserve its native profile.
Example formulation: scalp toner for cosmetic labs
