| Product Number: | HE260 |
| size: | 1kg |
| Ingredients: | Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Purified Water |
| Botanical Name: | Camellia Sinensis |
| Note: | Green tea is not green! It has an orange colour and will oxidise to a browner colour over time. Products containing green tea extract should be stored away from light and preferably in airless, UV protective containers to preserve its antioxidant power. |
| How To Use in Cosmetics: | While Green Tea extract is highly soluble in water when added it is usuall to find some grainy un-dissolved particulates. Therefore we advise making a solution with the green tea and then filtering it prior to adding to your batch to prevent these undissolved grains causing micro issues or issues with the skin feel. If you are making a powdered product this step isn't required. |
| Amount Required: | This green tea extract is 28 times stronger than fresh green tea so is to be used sparingly. We recommend adding between 0.1-1% to your finished product. |
| Numbering: | The number system for herbs is displayed as a ratio showing you how much stronger the powder is vs the plant. So, in this case you would need to ad 28 times more fresh green tea lead to achieve the same quantity of actives as you get with 1 part extract. It's that powerful! |
