Phellodendron Amurense Bark Extract · 5% aqueous hydroglycerin stock
Formulate Labs presents Phellodendron Amurense Bark Extract, our fixed 5% hydroglycerin stock, a potent botanical active designed to protect and soothe blemish-prone skin. Driven by key actives like berberine, palmatine, and FQA, this extract—distinct from general Phellodendron or Amur Cork Tree bark preparations—offers multi-pathway environmental defense.
Bark Extract from the Amur Cork Tree
Botanical Identity: Phellodendron Amurense Bark Extract, also known by common names like Amur Cork Tree Bark Extract and historically as Phellodendron or Huang Bai, is a powerful botanical extract. Formulate Labs offers this ingredient by its precise INCI name, Phellodendron Amurense Bark Extract, ensuring clear specification for formulators rather than proprietary supplier SKUs.
Dual mechanism: Phellodendron Amurense Bark Extract supports skin health and appearance through a multi-pathway mechanism. For environmental defense, it inhibits Protease-Activated Receptor-2 (PAR-2) signaling, helping to block the influx of calcium into skin cells induced by airborne particulate matter. This action is complemented by its ability to neutralize reactive oxygen species (ROS) and suppress inflammatory cytokines like IL-8, providing a soothing effect. For blemish-prone skin, its key alkaloid, berberine, provides targeted activity against Propionibacterium acnes while also helping to regulate sebum production and support the repair of the skin barrier.
Use levels: For daily-use protective skincare, our Phellodendron Amurense Bark Extract 5% hydroglycerin stock is recommended at 0.1%–5.0%. For targeted spot treatments addressing blemishes, the use level can be increased up to 10%–12% of this same stock.
Market context: Phellodendron Amurense Bark Extract is strategically positioned in the B2B market through compelling narratives: as a science-backed active for anti-pollution and exposome shielding, offering protection against environmental stressors with its specific PAR-2 inhibition; as a cornerstone ingredient for synergistic acne control, providing antibacterial, sebum-regulating, and soothing properties for blemish-prone skin; and as a 'true-to-nature' 'Cellular Extract' that aligns with clean beauty, sustainable, and transparent formulation trends.
Pricing context: B2B pricing data for cosmetic-grade, formulation-ready liquid extracts of Phellodendron Amurense is notably sparse, with public data primarily referencing dry raw bark powders. Formulate Labs’ pricing reflects the significant value-add of a standardized liquid extract, designed for ease of formulation.
