Shilajit Glycerite Asphaltum Punjabianum Extract - 20ML

Features

Description

Essentially Natural Shilajit Glycerite is a hydro-glycerol extract of Shilajit (Asphaltum Punjabianum Extract), prepared at a 1:10 ratio in vegetable glycerine and water. This alcohol-free liquid extract is designed for use in water-based applications where a non-toxic, pleasant-tasting solvent system is preferred.

Glycerine extracts are a gentler alternative to alcohol tinctures, so they may extract fewer non-polar compounds, while offering a vegan-friendly option with broad formulation versatility.

Safety Instructions For external use - patch test before first use Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes Keep tightly sealed to maintain freshness and consistency Keep out of reach of children FAQs Q: What does a 1:10 extract ratio mean?

A: It indicates the extract was prepared using one part raw material to ten parts solvent system, giving a consistent, ready-to-use liquid concentration. Q: Why choose a glycerite instead of an alcohol tincture? A: Glycerites are alcohol-free and pleasant tasting, and they suit many water-based applications where ethanol is not preferred.

Q: Can I use this in an oil serum or facial oil? A: Not directly, this extract is water soluble and will not blend evenly into oils without a suitable emulsifier system. Q: Why is Shilajit extract usually very dark? A: Shilajit is naturally a deep, resinous mineral-rich substance, and its extracts typically retain a dark colour.

Q: Can the texture change over time or in cold weather? A: Yes, glycerine-rich extracts can become thicker when cold, gentle warming and shaking usually restores a more pourable consistency.
