Formulation & Chemistry

The client description identifies naturally occurring fatty acids, tocopherols, phytosterols and unsaponifiable compounds in the elderberry seed oil base.

Royal Amber Hojari is a trade-grade description and does not by itself establish a unique chemical profile. The finished infusion depends on the resin batch, resin-to-oil ratio, ultrasonic process and filtration.

No batch-specific markers or quantitative composition are supplied here. Data for raw Boswellia sacra resin or its essential oil should not be transferred directly to this oil infusion.

Formulation Guidance

• Use at no more than 2% in leave-on skincare under the current product guidance.
• In emulsions, introduce through the oil phase only after checking process compatibility.
• Evaluate aroma strength, colour, sediment, oxidation and packaging compatibility.
• Use the current COA, SDS and any available analytical data to confirm grade and batch-specific composition.
