Composition & Formulation Notes

This is a multi-botanical infusion in elderberry seed oil. The supplied description does not state the infusion ratios, a batch-specific constituent profile or quantified marker compounds.

• Do not assume that the composition of benzoin absolute or Bergamot Mint essential oil transfers directly to this infused oil.
• Use the batch COA, SDS and any available allergen or IFRA documentation for regulated formulation work.
• The original information contains both broad carrier-oil use suggestions and a 2% leave-on restriction; this tab applies the more conservative maximum of 2% until the supplier confirms otherwise.
• Run stability, compatibility, odour and colour testing in the finished formula.

Applications

• Facial, body and massage oils at a level appropriate to the finished formula.
• Hair and scalp oils.
• Perfume oils and oil-based aromatic blends.
• Balms, butters and anhydrous cosmetic products.
• Aromatic cosmetic formulations where a warm balsamic base with a fresh herbal-minty lift is desired.

These are formulation uses, not therapeutic claims. Confirm suitability, stability and regulatory requirements for the intended market and finished product.

Safety

• For external use only.
• Patch test before topical use.
• For leave-on products, do not exceed 2% unless current supplier documentation supports a different limit.
• Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes.
• Benzoin and mint-derived aromatic constituents may be sensitising for some users; review the batch SDS, allergen declaration and any applicable IFRA documentation.
• Seek qualified guidance for use during pregnancy, with young children or on highly sensitive skin.
• Store tightly closed, away from heat, direct light and moisture.
