Recommendations for Use:

• Start with a low concentration of Yarrow Glycolic Extract in your formulations and gradually increase as needed, observing the product's effect on the skin.
• Ensure the pH of your final product is within a skin-friendly range (typically 4.5 - 6.5) for optimal efficacy and to minimize potential irritation from the glycolic component.
• When incorporating into oil-based formulations, you may need to use an emulsifier or solubilizer to ensure even distribution of the extract.
