Coffee Extract (PG)

Coffee Extract (PG) is a water-free, glycerin-free botanical extract made with coffee botanical material and propylene glycol. This cosmetic formulator-grade extract is designed for skincare, body care, hair care, and cosmetic formulations that need a botanical ingredient associated with antioxidant-supporting, refreshed-looking, and skin-conditioning benefits.

Coffee is naturally associated with caffeine, chlorogenic acids, and antioxidant compounds. In cosmetic formulations, Coffee Extract (PG) may help support a refreshed product concept, a well-cared-for skin feel, and a radiant-looking finished product profile.

This extract is made without added water and without glycerin. Propylene glycol is used as the botanical extraction solvent and carrier, making this extract suitable for formulators who prefer PG-based botanical ingredients for easy incorporation into water-based, water-compatible, and emulsion-based cosmetic systems.

Coffee Extract (PG) is ideal for cosmetic formulators, DIY skincare makers, and small-batch product developers creating facial serums, gels, toners, creams, lotions, body milks, scalp care products, under-eye cosmetic products, and botanical skincare formulations.

This is a cosmetic raw ingredient for formulation use only. Do not apply directly to the skin undiluted.
