Introducing Re-Connecting Nature®

Re-Connecting Nature® is scientifically proven to stimulate the immune system and recreate a more natural balance associated with enhanced skin health, resilience, comfort and appearance.

NEW! In addition to solid format (Re-Connecting Nature®) now we also offer in liquid format (Re- Connecting Nature® liquid)!

This balance actively promotes skin integrity to:

  • enhance barrier function, faster regeneration and repair
  • reduce redness and irritation
  • increase levels of age-defying collagen
  • restore natural microbiome balance
 

The Re Connecting Nature® liquid makes it easy for formulators to create finished products with a neutral appearance.

Humus Extract

formulation advise
Appearance
brown powder

Solubility
Re-Connecting Nature® extract is not fully water or oil soluble, but it can be dispersed into both. If it is used in a water-based product, in order to prevent sedimentation, the usage of a thickening polymer with suspending properties (like Xanthan Gum at 1%) is advisable.

Heat tolerance
Re-Connecting Nature® extract should not be used at temperatures above 40°C.

Viscosity
Re-Connecting Nature® extract does not significantly impact the viscosity of the formulation. However, it is recommended to formulate the extract into high viscosity formulations, to prevent sedimentation of the extract particles.

Colour
Due to the dark characteristic shade of the extract, a higher oil phase is beneficial if a lighter coloured finished formulation is preferred.

Recommended dosage
0,5 – 4%
