- Usage Rate: 1% - 5% for leave-on products; up to 10% in wash-off formulas (like powder masks).
- Solubility: Water-soluble.
REVIEWS
- Incorporation: Dissolve in the water phase of your formulation or blend directly into dry powder bases. For emulsions, add during the cool-down phase (below 40°C / 104°F) to preserve the heat-sensitive Vitamin C and active botanical compounds.
- Appearance: Fine, light yellow to pale orange powder with a mild, characteristic citrus aroma.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct moisture and light. Keep in a tightly sealed container. Keep well-closed, as botanical powders are naturally hygroscopic and prone to clumping if exposed to humidity
