Product Description
Ingredients: SHAKE WELL BEFORE USE Glycerin - Vegetable/Palm Free, Purified Water, Arnica Montana Flower Extract
Our Arnica extract is made using a 5: 1 strength herbal extract infused into a glycerin base.
Known for its anti-inflammatory properties arnica is a great addition to an anti-ageing or soothing skin care range. Tthe active components of arnica are the sesquiterpene lactones such as helanalin, 11α,13-dihydrohelenalin, chamissonolid, and their ester derivatives.
As with many active ingredients arnica can cause skin irritations in some people so take to patch test before use and avoid over-dosing the active in your formulations. Arnica allergy has been reported in people, mainly who had been self-medicating with arnica tincture. Appropriate levels of active to use in a skin cream are between 0.1-5% as actives (or approx 2% - neat as supplied). Arnica oil can be used at higher levels due to the different chemistry and risk factors of the oil.
We recommend adding the extract at the end of manufacturing once the temperature has cooled to below 50C.
Water soluble. Add to water based products after cooling. Not soluble in oil but can be used in an emulsion.
Typical use is between 2-10%
