Coconut Liquid Extract - 100% Natural (Standardized)

Standardization: 10:1 extract

Coconut Liquid Extract – Standardized is a liquid blend of Coconut Extract and Propanediol produced through a unique manufacturing technology.

Coconut extract is derived from the meat of the coconut and is rich in skin-conditioning fatty acids, proteins, and vitamins. It's a highly absorbent and nourishing extract. It is widely used in natural skin care and beauty products. Because it is a humectant, it has a great moisturizing effect and helps to prevent water loss. Coconut extract is safe for all skin types.

With a plant-based origin, Propanediol is a biodegradable and petrochemical-free solvent that is NPA approved, making it an excellent corn sugar-derived alternative to petroleum-based Glycols for hair- and skin care formulations. It offers benefits and functionalities that include improved emollience, enhanced viscosity, non-irritating properties, exceptional sensory characteristics, clarity, and anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, among many more.

The characteristic color of this botanical extract imbues natural and organic cosmetic formulations with its innate hue. This means that the product colors that were formerly possible to obtain only through the use of artificial and often objectionable constituents can now be achieved through plant-based ingredients that impart not only their beneficial, skin health-enhancing properties but also their individual natural colors. It is strongly recommended that small batch trials be conducted to determine the dosage required to achieve the desired shade imbued by the extract.

The original color of Coconut Liquid Extract – Standardized is Ivory white; however, there is a possibility of this color changing, depending on the formulation to which it is added.

Recommended Usage Level: 1-3% in skincare products.

Storage: Stable when stored in a cool, dry place.

Are There Any Health Benefits of Consuming Coconut Liquid Extract? 

The water from the coconut is rich in skin-conditioning fatty acids, proteins, and vitamins, making it ideal for skin nourishment and routine care. It also is a humectant, meaning it’s highly absorbent and is very effective at moisturizing all types of skin.  

Increased smoothing, enhanced vibrance, non-bothersome properties, added sensory characteristics, lucidity, and anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties are just some of the benefits listed in the product description.
