Alpha Arbutin is a biosynthetic active ingredient derived from hydroquinone and glucose. It is widely used in cosmetic and skincare formulations for its skin-brightening and spot-reducing properties. Alpha Arbutin inhibits tyrosinase, an enzyme involved in melanin production, thereby helping to reduce pigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone. It is more stable and effective than its beta counterpart and is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.

Ascorbic Acid
Ascorbic Acid, commonly known as Vitamin C, is a water-soluble vitamin and potent antioxidant essential for collagen synthesis, immune function, and protection against oxidative stress. It is widely used as a nutritional supplement, food preservative, and additive to enhance shelf life and nutritional value. Naturally present in citrus fruits and various vegetables, ascorbic acid is also important in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and animal feed industries due to its health benefits and preservative qualities.
D-Panthenol USP
D-Panthenol USP, also known as Provitamin B5, is the dextrorotatory isomer of panthenol and is biologically active. It is a water-soluble, viscous, clear liquid with a slightly sweet odor and is widely used in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, personal care, and nutraceutical applications. D-Panthenol is the alcohol analog of pantothenic acid (Vitamin B5) and is converted into Vitamin B5 in the skin and body, where it plays a vital role in cellular metabolism and tissue repair. Its moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, and healing properties make it highly valuable across industries.
Ferulic Acid
Ferulic Acid is a naturally occurring hydroxycinnamic acid classified as a phenolic compound with potent antioxidant properties. It exists as a pale yellow to light brown crystalline powder with a faint characteristic odor. Ferulic Acid is commonly found in the cell walls of various plants such as rice bran, wheat, oats, coffee, apples, and fruits, where it plays a role in plant structural integrity and defense against environmental stress. It is valued across multiple industries—cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, food, and agriculture—due to its ability to neutralize free radicals, absorb UV radiation, and exhibit anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activities.
Illipe Butter
Illipe Butter is a natural, hard vegetable fat derived from the nuts of the Shorea stenoptera tree, native to the rainforests of Borneo. Known for its high melting point and rich moisturizing profile, Illipe Butter is prized in cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and food applications for its emollient qualities and stability. It closely resembles cocoa butter in composition and function, making it a sustainable alternative in formulations requiring consistency and long shelf life. The butter appears as a pale yellow to off-white solid with a mild, neutral aroma.
Lanolin Anhydrous
Lanolin Anhydrous is a purified, waxy substance derived from the sebaceous glands of sheep’s wool. It appears as a yellow to amber, semi-solid wax with a characteristic mild odor. Lanolin is highly valued for its excellent emollient, moisturizing, and protective properties, making it widely used in cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and personal care formulations. The anhydrous form is free from water, which enhances its stability and shelf life, and allows it to act as a natural barrier to lock moisture into the skin.
Stabilizer
Stabilizers are additives used to maintain the physical and chemical properties of materials, preventing degradation caused by heat, light, oxygen, or mechanical stress. This product typically includes compounds like calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, or complex blends tailored for polymers, foods, cosmetics, or pharmaceuticals. They improve durability, shelf life, and performance of various formulations.
Vitamin E Acetate DL-Alpha-Tocopheryl Acetate
Vitamin E Acetate DL-Alpha-Tocopheryl Acetate, chemically known as DL-Alpha-Tocopheryl Acetate, is a stable, synthetic form of Vitamin E used widely in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food fortification, and dietary supplements. As an esterified form of tocopherol, it offers superior oxidative stability, making it ideal for formulations requiring extended shelf life. It functions as a potent antioxidant, protecting cells from oxidative damage and supporting immune and skin health.
Wheatgerm Oil
Wheatgerm Oil is a nutrient-rich, golden-colored oil extracted from the germ of the wheat kernel (Triticum vulgare), typically through cold pressing or solvent extraction.
