Active aqueous extract of mallow, organic

Active aqueous extract from mallow, ORGANIC Active aqueous extract from mallow brings mucilaginous polysaccharides to the formulation, for which common mallow (Malva sylvestris L.) is known. On the skin they form a delicate protective film, retain moisture and soothe feelings of tension and irritation. In the formulation it therefore acts as a soothing and moisturising active ingredient , particularly suitable for products for sensitive, dry and children's skin. This is an aqueous extract from flowers and leaves in COSMOS Organic certified quality, ready for direct addition to the water phase. It is equally suitable for leave-on products (serums, tonics, creams, lip balms) and rinse-off preparations (shower gels, shampoos, intimate hygiene products), where it helps to soften the feeling after washing with surfactants. Key benefits Skin soothing – the mucilaginous substances in mallow help relieve the sensation of burning, itching and tension that accompanies dry or irritated skin. This is most apparent in tonics, serums and body products for sensitive skin. Moisturisation support – polysaccharides bind water and form a thin film on the skin surface that slows its evaporation. The effect is superficial and depends on the dosage as well as the rest of the formulation (humectants, oils). Softening of rinse-off preparations – in shampoos and shower gels it helps balance the drying effect of surfactants. Suitable for gentle products for sensitive scalp and for intimate hygiene products, which are typically formulated in the acidic pH range. Simple processing – it is water-solubl
