EXTRACT POWDER (5:1)
Cotton Seed Extract (Gossypium Hirsutum) is a 5:1 concentrated botanical extract produced from premium cotton seeds through a multi-stage extraction and concentration process. The 5:1 extract ratio indicates that approximately 5 kilograms of raw cotton seeds are used to produce 1 kilogram of this concentrated powder. As a whole-spectrum extract, it retains the native proteins, fatty acids, and mineral constituents naturally present in cotton seeds. Appearing as a fine brown-yellow powder, this botanical raw material is utilized in the cosmetic and personal care industries for its natural emulsion-supporting and formulation-enhancing properties.
