Phyllanthus Emblica Fruit Extract · 5% aqueous hydroglycerin stock
Experience the multi-stage antioxidant power of Formulate Labs' fixed 5% hydroglycerin stock of Phyllanthus Emblica Fruit Extract, rich in hydrolyzable tannins, phenolic compounds, and natural ascorbic acid, known by its traditional names Amla or Indian Gooseberry.
Amla Fruit Extract: Traditional Wisdom, Modern Science
Phyllanthus Emblica Fruit Extract, commonly known as Amla or Indian Gooseberry, is derived from the fruit of the Emblica Officinalis tree. Esteemed in traditional Ayurvedic medicine, this botanical is gaining recognition in modern cosmetics for its potent skin and hair benefits. At Formulate Labs, we ensure clarity by providing materials identified by their INCI name, not by specific supplier SKUs or traditional common names.
Dual mechanism: Phyllanthus Emblica Fruit Extract exhibits a unique, multi-stage "cascading" antioxidant defense, effectively neutralizing a broad spectrum of reactive oxygen species over an extended period without pro-oxidant risk. Cosmetically, it supports anti-aging by helping to maintain collagen integrity through downregulating MMP-1 and MMP-2, and promotes an even skin tone by suppressing melanin synthesis via tyrosinase and TRP-2 inhibition.
Use levels: For optimal efficacy and stability, formulate Formulate Labs' 5% hydroglycerin stock of Phyllanthus Emblica Fruit Extract at concentrations of 0.1% to 1.0% in skincare and scalp treatment formulas. It is readily soluble in water, glycerin, and propanediol, and should be added during the cool-down phase (below 60°C) with a final pH between 4.0 and 6.0.
Market context: This extract is positioned as a premium, high-performance active, often leveraging its rich history in Ayurvedic tradition as a "superfruit" adaptogen. It competes as a stable, non-irritating botanical alternative to synthetic antioxidants and brightening agents like ascorbic acid and hydroquinone, offering broad-spectrum photo-aging defense and excellent formulation stability for both skin rejuvenation and hair follicle support.
Pricing context: While public pricing data for standardized liquid Phyllanthus Emblica Fruit Extract is scarce, a benchmark against comparable glycerin-based botanical extracts indicates a bulk cost of approximately $43.30/kg. Formulate Labs offers this material with a realistic price ladder, including 500g samples at $58.50, 1kg at $90.00, and 17kg pails at $935.00 ($55.00/kg).
We ship a fixed 5% extract blend with selectable preservation - ready to meter into water-phase formulas at the use rates in the formulation guide below.*
For clarity and regulatory compliance, Formulate Labs identifies materials by their INCI names, distinct from common trade names (Amla, Indian Gooseberry, Emblica Officinalis).
Every lot is produced to order in our AI-powered robotic factory. Nothing sits on a warehouse shelf going stale - you get a date-of-manufacture-fresh batch every time.
