Practical formulation guide
Usage level: Guideline usage level: 0.1–1 % in facial and leave-on products; 0.5–2 % in body and rinse-off products; 1–3 % in soaps; always within the IFRA limit for the essential oil and the product category.
How to use and incorporate: Add at the end of the process, with the base below 40 °C/104 °F, so volatile notes are not lost. In water-based products (toners, gels, shampoo, body mist) first premix with a solubilizer —polysorbate 20, Oleth-20 or PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil— at a 1:3 to 1:5 ratio and then add to the water.
Formulation tips:
  • Citrus oil: may be photosensitizing if obtained by expression; in leave-on products for sun-exposed areas, limit its concentration. Oxidizes quickly: keep tightly closed and refrigerated.
  • Declare on the label the fragrance allergens naturally present in the essential oil when required by the regulations of the destination market.
  • For aromatic blends, combine top notes (citrus), middle notes (floral, herbal) and base notes (woods, resins) and let the blend mature for 24–48 hours.
  • Before scaling up, make a pilot batch and run a stability test (cycles at 4 / 25 / 45 °C/39 / 77 / 113 °F for 4 weeks, checking odor, color, pH, viscosity and separation) in the final packaging.
Compatibility: Soluble in vegetable oils, esters and alcohol; insoluble in water. May change the viscosity of gels and shampoos and attack some plastics (polystyrene): prefer amber glass, PET or lined aluminum.
Storage: Airtight container, as full as possible, protected from light and between 15 and 25 °C/59 and 77 °F. Oxidation from air and light degrades the aroma and increases its sensitization potential; minimize the air inside the container.
Precautions: Do not apply undiluted to the skin. Keep out of reach of children. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Flammable: keep away from flames and heat sources. See the Safety Data Sheet.
Technical information for formulators: This sheet describes industrial uses of the raw material in the development of cosmetic products. It is not an efficacy claim for any finished product. The person responsible for the formulation must validate the concentration, compatibility and claims of their product in accordance with applicable regulations.
