The extract

Unlocking the Multifaceted Benefits of Red Raspberry Extract

Rubus idaeus (Red Raspberry) is a botanical powerhouse known for its vibrant fruits and leaves. While commonly referred to by trade names like Rubus idaeus fruit or leaf powder and red raspberry, Formulate Labs provides a precisely standardized INCI material (Rubus Idaeus Fruit/Leaf Extract), ensuring consistent activity and enabling formulators to craft evidence-backed products rather than relying on supplier-specific SKUs.

Dual mechanism: Rubus Idaeus Fruit/Leaf Extract protects skin cells from environmental stressors like oxidative damage and UVB-induced photoaging [4, 5]. At a molecular level, it supports the skin’s innate repair mechanisms by upregulating SIRT-1 and GADD45α genes, associated with cellular longevity and DNA repair [6, 7]. Furthermore, it reinforces the epidermal barrier by stimulating the synthesis of ceramides and hyaluronic acid, leading to a more resilient, hydrated stratum corneum and a strengthened extracellular matrix [1, 8].

Use levels: For Formulate Labs' Standard or Concentrated hydroglycerin stock of Rubus Idaeus Fruit/Leaf Extract, typical use levels range from 5.0% to 10.0% of the final formulation to achieve desired efficacy in water-based systems.

Market context: Rubus Idaeus extracts are marketed by various suppliers, each with different positioning strategies based on extraction methods and targeted bioactives. Formulate Labs provides the evidence-backed INCI material, empowering formulators to build their own product stories based on robust science, whether targeting premium anti-aging, cellular renewal, or general antioxidant applications.

We ship standard or concentrated extract stock with selectable preservation - ready to meter into finished formulas at the use rates in the formulation guide below.*

Is this a standardized marker isolate?
No. This is a whole-botanical powder extraction into the selected carrier, not a solvent isolate and not a standardized marker extract unless a separate assay is specified and quoted. Composition percentages for extracted solids are modeled from starting botanical load.
Where is the botanical from, and is the stock certified?
Stock is manufactured to order in Fenton, MO. Incoming botanical powder varies by lot. We do not list a vendor or country of origin on this page. The finished extract stock is not certified organic, COSMOS, vegan, kosher, halal, or non-GMO unless a separate certificate is issued. No fragrance is added. Full deck disclosure is on the SDS for the selected recipe.
What can we claim on a finished formula?
Cosmetic structure/function language only: skin- or hair-conditioning, antioxidant cosmetic stories, and appearance-based well-aging positioning. Published literature is due diligence, not finished-product claim substantiation. Do not claim diagnosis, treatment, cure, or prevention of disease. Do not position this as an ingestible, TCM drug, or dietary supplement.
Lead time and shelf life?
Made to order on our robotic platform. Aqueous target shelf life is 12–18 months at room temperature, 18–24 months refrigerated, preservative-dependent. Oil macerates are similar unopened ranges; protect from light and heat. Use-by on the lot COA governs the batch you receive.
