Our current Formulations
Our formulations have been developed as frame formulations to show the scope of applications. Re-Connecting Nature™ can be used in almost all cosmetic products as long as certain formulation aspects have been considered.
Formulations advice
INCI name: Humus Extract
Appearance: brown powder
Solubility
Re-Connecting Nature™ extract is not fully water or oil soluble, but it can be dispersed into both. If it is used in a water-based product, in order to prevent sedimentation, the usage of a thickening polymer with suspending properties (like Xanthan Gum at 1%) is advisable.
Heat tolerance
Re-Connecting Nature™ extract should not be used at temperatures above 40°C.
Viscosity
Re-Connecting Nature™ extract does not significantly impact the viscosity of the formulation. However, it is recommended to formulate the extract into high viscosity formulations, to prevent sedimentation of the extract particles.
Colour
Due to the dark characteristic shade of the extract, a higher oil phase is beneficial if a lighter coloured finished formulation is preferred.
Recommended dosage
0,5 – 4%
