Product Description
Sourcing and specification of cornflower oil extract
Cornflower oil extract from France is obtained by oil extraction of blue petals at 50-60°C for 36-72 hours, yielding a viscous liquid with INCI Centaurea cyanus Oil Extract. The 5 ml pack serves laboratories and small-batch producers who require traceable botanical raw material. Oil Extracts of this type are selected for consistent fat solubility and stability in finished formulas. This volume supports precise testing prior to larger production runs.
Key properties for formulation work
The extract remains stable when introduced below 40°C and integrates directly into lipid phases at 0,05-5% without further processing. Its mild botanical profile supports compatibility with other oil-soluble concentrates for targeted cosmetic and nutritional blends. Quality checks at every stage ensure batch-to-batch consistency for industrial buyers.
Applications across cosmetic and supplement manufacturing
Contract manufacturers and cosmetic labs incorporate the material into serums, eye-area products, body emulsions and after-sun formulas. Dietary supplement producers and food factories worldwide source it as a botanical raw material for functional beverages, confectionery items and food-grade additives in both retail and wholesale quantities. Cornflower oil extract, 1 L facilitates scale-up for industrial volumes while maintaining formulation uniformity.
Example formulation for a scalp toner
A scalp-refreshing toner can be prepared with 50 ml aqueous base, 0,8 ml cornflower oil extract, 0,4 ml birch bud oil extract and 0,2 ml panthenol. All components are combined at ambient temperature and filled into spray bottles for final use. This demonstrates the ease of incorporating the extract into diverse product types.
Storage recommendations and shelf life
The product retains quality until December 2028 when kept in tightly closed containers in a cool, dark location. After opening the 5 ml unit, contents should be used within the stated period while protecting from heat and light exposure. Botanical Extracts demand adherence to these guidelines to preserve original characteristics over time.
