Palmitoyl Camellia Sinensis Extract

Product Description

Palmitoyl Camellia Sinensis Extract is a lipid-modified botanical derivative obtained by esterification of Camellia sinensis extract with palmitic acid. This structural modification improves lipophilicity and enhances compatibility with oil phases in cosmetic formulations.

The ingredient combines green tea-derived polyphenolic bioactives with enhanced skin affinity, making it suitable for formulations targeting skin conditioning, environmental protection, and moisture balance support in emulsified systems.

It is widely used in modern skincare products where improved delivery of botanical actives and formulation stability are required, including serums, creams, lotions, and barrier-care systems.

From a formulation perspective, it is designed for systems requiring enhanced lipid-phase integration of botanical extracts for improved skin feel and performance consistency.
