Ajowan oil
Ajowan Oil, also known as Ajwain Oil or Trachyspermum Ammi Oil, is an essential oil obtained by steam distillation of the seeds of the Trachyspermum ammi plant. With a strong, pungent, thyme-like aroma, Ajowan Oil is rich in thymol—a powerful compound known for its antiseptic, antimicrobial, and digestive properties. Traditionally used in Ayurvedic and Unani medicine, Ajowan Oil is valued today across food preservation, pharmaceuticals, and natural personal care formulations.
This oil exhibits broad-spectrum antimicrobial effects and is widely used in therapeutic balms, oral care, digestive tonics, and antiseptic blends. It also finds applications in fragrance formulations that benefit from its spicy, herbal character. Its potent biological activity makes it effective in natural pest control and disinfectant preparations.
Almond Bitter oil
Almond Bitter Oil, derived from the kernels of bitter almonds (Prunus amygdalus var. amara), is an essential oil known for its sharp, nutty, and marzipan-like aroma. This oil is produced through steam distillation of crushed bitter almond kernels and contains a naturally occurring compound called benzaldehyde, which gives it its characteristic scent. In purified form (free of hydrogen cyanide), bitter almond oil is used in fragrance, flavoring, and pharmaceutical applications.
Due to its potent aroma and biochemical properties, it is widely used in perfumery, baked goods flavoring (in controlled quantities), aromatherapy, and traditional topical remedies. It is important to distinguish between natural bitter almond oil, which must be detoxified, and synthetic benzaldehyde, which is commonly used as a substitute in commercial formulations.
Almond fragrance oil
Almond Fragrance Oil is a synthetic or naturally blended aromatic compound designed to replicate the warm, sweet, and nutty scent of almonds. It may incorporate notes of marzipan, vanilla, or cherry-like tones to mimic the characteristic aroma of bitter almonds without the presence of cyanogenic compounds. Unlike essential oils, fragrance oils are created for consistent aroma performance and are widely used across cosmetics, personal care, household products, and scented formulations.
This versatile oil delivers a nostalgic, comforting scent often associated with desserts, cleanliness, and warmth. It is valued for its stability in soaps, lotions, candles, and air care products. Almond Fragrance Oil is typically formulated to be allergen-compliant and IFRA-certified for safe use across applications.
Methoxy benzophenone Sulfonic Acid
Methoxy Benzophenone Sulfonic Acid is a water-soluble UV filter widely used in sunscreen and cosmetic formulations. It absorbs ultraviolet (UV) radiation, primarily in the UVB range, protecting skin and products from harmful effects of sun exposure. This compound appears as a white to off-white powder or crystalline solid and is valued for its photostability and broad-spectrum UV protection.
Michelia Flower oil
Michelia Flower Oil is an essential oil extracted through steam distillation or solvent extraction from the flowers of Michelia species (e.g., Michelia champaca, Michelia alba). Known for its rich, floral, and slightly fruity aroma, it is widely used in perfumery, aromatherapy, and traditional medicine. The oil is prized for its therapeutic properties and as a natural fragrance ingredient.
Polyglycerol-10-Laurate
Polyglycerol-10-Laurate is a non-ionic, biodegradable surfactant and emulsifier derived from natural lauric acid and polyglycerol (with ten glycerol units). It is known for its excellent emulsifying, dispersing, and solubilizing properties, especially in oil-in-water systems. Commonly used in cosmetics, food, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products, it is valued for being mild, non-toxic, and suitable for sensitive applications, including baby care and oral care.
Polyglyceryl
Polyglyceryl refers to a family of non-ionic surfactants and emulsifiers made by the polymerization of glycerol units. Depending on the number of glycerol units (e.g., Polyglyceryl-2, -3, -6, -10) and fatty acid esterification (e.g., laurate, oleate, stearate), they offer different emulsifying and solubilizing properties. These compounds are biodegradable, mild, and skin-friendly, making them ideal for use in cosmetics, food, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products. Polyglyceryl esters are often chosen in natural and organic product formulations due to their origin and non-toxic profile.
Polysorbates
Polysorbates are a class of nonionic surfactants derived from sorbitol and fatty acids, commonly used as emulsifiers, solubilizers, and dispersing agents in a wide range of industries. They improve the mixing of oil and water phases, stabilize emulsions, and enhance the texture and consistency of formulations. Polysorbates are widely used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food products, and industrial applications due to their biocompatibility, low toxicity, and effectiveness at low concentrations.
