Sunflower Powder 1 kg

Sunflower Powder multifunctional botanical ingredient for cosmetic food and protein systems

Sunflower Powder is produced from dried Helianthus annuus material through fine milling into a uniform beige powder. It presents a light cream tone and subtle nutty aroma. The material disperses in aqueous systems forming stable suspensions in gels and pastes while remaining insoluble in oils. Pre wetting in glycerin or water ensures even integration. The dry format supports storage stability, accurate dosing and consistent industrial processing across cosmetic and food applications.

Properties and skin performance

In cosmetic formulations it enhances texture density and provides a soft natural tone. Proper dispersion ensures a uniform system without coarse particles. In masks it creates a dense botanical layer with matte finish. In emulsions it reinforces richness without increasing heaviness when the aqueous phase is properly structured.

Industry applications

Sunflower Powder is incorporated into cleansing masks, SPA blends, dry reconstitutable systems and botanical care lines. In the food industry it is used in protein blends, nutrition bars, sauces and bakery products as a plant based component. In functional powder systems it serves as a botanical matrix ingredient. The stable dry format makes it suitable for private label development and contract manufacturing with scalable processing.

Formula example

Purified water 240 ml
Sunflower Powder 28 g
Propanediol 20 g
Sage hydrolat 30 ml
Xanthan gum 3 g
Sweet almond oil 15 ml
Olive based emulsifier 9 g
Preservative system 2 g

Xanthan gum is dispersed into purified water under continuous mixing until a uniform gel forms. Propanediol and sage hydrolat are incorporated to balance texture. Sunflower Powder is pre hydrated with a portion of the aqueous phase to create a smooth slurry and gradually blended into the gel ensuring even suspension. Sweet almond oil is heated with the emulsifier until homogeneous and then introduced into the main mixture under steady agitation to form a cream emulsion. The preservative system is added at the final stage and pH is adjusted to a balanced range suitable for emulsion systems. The final product is a dense cream mask with uniform botanical distribution.

Sunflower Powder is positioned for B2B manufacturers operating in cosmetic, food and functional sectors. It supports industrial scalability, batch consistency and reproducible formulation performance across multi industry production environments.
