Yarrow extract

Yarrow extract (CAS 84082-83-7), derived from Achillea millefolium, is a botanical ingredient used across cosmetics, nutraceuticals, and flavoring applications. It delivers antioxidant activity and astringent properties that formulators rely on to stabilize and condition finished products.

In personal care formulations, it is incorporated into toners, facial serums, and scalp treatments where its astringent character supports pore-tightening and sebum-control claims. These properties make it a versatile choice for modern skincare.

Food and beverage manufacturers use it as a bittering and flavoring agent in herbal liqueurs, bitters, and functional beverages. Its characteristic aromatic profile contributes complexity to high-end beverage formulations and traditional spirits.

Nutraceutical and supplement brands include it in herbal blends and capsule formulations targeting digestive and general wellness positioning. It is often paired with other botanicals to create synergistic effects in health-focused products.

Cosmetic antioxidant systems also incorporate it alongside other botanical extracts to extend product stability. This supports natural-origin formulation claims while maintaining the integrity of the finished cosmetic goods over time.

Yarrow extract is supplied as a liquid extract, dry powder, or spray-dried powder, with glycerin- and water-based liquid forms common for cosmetic applications. Ethanol-based tinctures are also available for specific industrial uses.

Standardized dry extracts are available for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical use. Buyers should confirm standardization parameters, solvent system, and country of botanical origin when evaluating potential suppliers for their projects.

These factors directly affect regulatory compliance and formulation compatibility across different regions. Ensuring the extract meets specific industry requirements is essential for successful product development and market entry.
