Vitis Vinifera Seed Extract
Our Standard or Concentrated hydroglycerin stock of Vitis Vinifera Seed Extract, rich in key actives like OPCs and resveratrol, delivers potent antioxidant protection and multi-functional skin benefits. Often recognized by trade names such as Grape Seed, our offering is the INCI-standardized extract for reliable formulation.
Grape Seed Extract
Botanical Identity: Vitis Vinifera, commonly known as the grape vine, yields seeds from which this potent extract is derived. Trade Names: Often referred to as Grape Seed or Vitis Vinifera in the industry, Formulate Labs provides the INCI-standardized *Vitis Vinifera* Seed Extract, ensuring consistent quality and clear ingredient identification rather than proprietary supplier SKUs.
Dual mechanism: *Vitis Vinifera* Seed Extract delivers its cosmetic functions through a dual approach, primarily acting as a potent antioxidant and a multi-target skin enhancer. Its rich content of bioactive phenolic compounds, including oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs), catechins, epicatechins, and resveratrol, efficiently scavenges free radicals, protecting the skin from environmental stressors. Additionally, it contributes to a more even skin tone by inhibiting tyrosinase, supports dermal integrity by suppressing collagenase and elastase, and promotes cellular longevity through pathways like SIRT1 and HSP47.
Use levels: Use levels for our Standard or Concentrated hydroglycerin stock of *Vitis Vinifera* Seed Extract typically range from 0.5%–3.0% in most formulations. For more intensive serum applications, formulators may consider increasing the dosage up to 10%.
Market context: In the competitive landscape, *Vitis Vinifera* Seed Extract is widely recognized for its upcycled sustainability, positioning it as an eco-friendly ingredient derived from wine and juice industry byproducts. It is frequently marketed for its superior antioxidant profile, with claims of greater potency than Vitamin C and E, and its multi-functional defense capabilities, addressing hyperpigmentation, UV-induced inflammation, and urban pollutant damage beyond just anti-aging.

Vitis Vinifera Seed Extract is documented in cosmetic peptide/protein literature. These are independent, third-party papers we link for formulators evaluating mechanism, tolerability, and published panel data. We did not conduct this research and do not guarantee replication in your finished formula.

Bulk composition at the selected Vitis Vinifera Seed Extract loading. Base carrier components scale proportionally when preservative is added; extract stays at the selected loading. Updates dynamically when you change base or preservation above. Full CAS disclosure is on the SDS/TDS for the selected variant (FL-VSE-W1-MBS4-5PCT-001).
SDS + TDS are issued per selected recipe. Links swap when you change selections above. A sample COA shows the standard extract QC panel (pH, organoleptic, TAMC/TYMC). Lot-specific COAs ship with every order.
We cook the raw botanical powder into the selected carrier. The botanical carries polar phenolics, flavonoid glycosides, and related extractable fractions. Those markers support antioxidant and skin-conditioning cosmetic stories. This is not a solvent isolate or a standardized marker extract. Lot identity appears on the COA and TDS.
This is a ready-to-use cosmetic extract stock, not a finished consumer product and not a standardized marker isolate. We cook the raw botanical powder into the selected hydroglycerin or oil carrier. Aqueous lots are released on pH, organoleptic, TAMC, and TYMC (total counts only). Oil macerates are released on organoleptic only. A sample COA is on this page; the lot-specific COA ships with the order.
