Epilobium angustifolium extract
Description
Epilobium angustifolium extract (CAS 90028-31-2), derived from fireweed, is a botanical active used in personal care and pharmaceutical formulations for its antioxidant and antimicrobial properties.
Sourced from the flowering herb native to northern regions, it delivers polyphenol-rich activity that supports both product stability and skin-active performance in various applications.
In cosmetic formulations, the extract is incorporated into facial serums, creams, and scalp treatments targeting sebum regulation and skin-calming effects for high-performance personal care products.
It functions as a natural preservative booster in leave-on and rinse-off products, helping reduce reliance on synthetic antimicrobial agents while maintaining the integrity of the final formulation.
Pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers use it in topical preparations where antioxidant protection and tissue-soothing activity are primary formulation priorities for specialized therapeutic use.
Its polyphenol content also supports anti-aging product lines where oxidative stress management is a key formulation claim, providing a natural alternative for modern skincare solutions.
The extract is supplied as a liquid extract or dried powder, with concentration and carrier varying by supplier specification to meet diverse manufacturing and processing requirements.
Standard grades are offered for cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications, with documentation typically including standardization data and certificates of analysis to support formulation and QA requirements.
