Frankincense CO2-se extract, organic

Frankincense CO2-se extract is a fragrance component obtained from the resin of the Boswellia carterii tree by extraction with carbon dioxide. It is used in facial and body cosmetics, soaps and aromatherapy blends, where it brings the scent of frankincense in oil form. The raw material is COSMOS Organic certified, the resin comes from Somalia and is processed in Europe. No organic solvents are used in production; the only extraction medium is carbon dioxide. The resulting extract is a mixture of volatile fragrance components that also occur naturally in frankincense essential oil, and in a formulation it behaves as an oil-based fragrance component. What it is good for Facial cosmetics – creams, oil-based serums and facial oils for normal, dry and mature skin. Body care – body oils, massage blends, balms and butters, where it works as a standalone fragrance or as part of a composition. Soaps – we recommend checking how it behaves in your specific type of soap on a small batch. Diffusers and aromatherapy – blends for diffusers and aroma lamps. Antimicrobial effect – a supplementary property of the fragrance component, not a replacement for a preservative system. Use in a formulation The extract is oil-soluble and insoluble in water, so it is added to the oil phase or directly to anhydrous products. In emulsions it belongs in the finished cream after cooling, and in anhydrous balms and butters at the moment the mixture starts to set. In water-based products, for example a toner or spray, a solubiliser is necessary and the stability of the mixture must be checked. Process it at
