Formulator Notes

Citronella Oil-Soluble Extract delivers citronellal, citronellol, and geraniol — highly lipophilic monoterpenoids — in concentrated coconut oil base. These terpenoids are the basis of citronella's insect-repelling activity. The oil-soluble format achieves maximum terpenoid concentration in a skin-compatible base. Use at 1–3% in natural insect-repellent formulations, outdoor skincare, and refreshing massage blends.

 

Product QnA

Q: What is the INCI name for Citronella Flower Oil Soluble Extracts Oil-Soluble Extract?

A: The INCI name is based on the botanical source combined with the carrier oil base — e.g. '[Botanical] Extract (and) [Carrier Oil]'. Verify exact INCI designation in CosIng (EU) or PCPC (US). Contact us to confirm the base oil in your batch.

Claim strength: High

Q: What is the typical inclusion rate for Citronella Flower Oil Soluble Extracts Oil-Soluble Extract?

A: Typically 1–5% in finished formulations. Start at the lower end (1–2%) and increase based on desired active potency and pilot batch assessment.

Claim strength: High

Q: How does the oil-soluble format compare to a water-soluble extract of Citronella Flower Oil Soluble Extracts?

A: The oil-soluble format delivers the lipophilic fraction of Citronella Flower Oil Soluble Extracts — fat-soluble compounds poorly carried in water-based extracts. Ideal for anhydrous formulations and emulsion oil phases where aqueous extracts would require a co-solvent.

Claim strength: High

Claim-strength scale – High = multiple clinical/cosmetic studies; Moderate = in-vitro or traditional use evidence; Emerging = early research.
