FEATURES AND BENEFITS 

Fresh and Bright: Rich in flavonoids and polyphenols, Lemon Balm Liquid Extract – 100% Natural (Standardized) helps restore balance to skin and hair. It leaves skin feeling calm and refreshed while giving hair a soft, naturally healthy look. 

Rosmarinic Radiance: Standardized to 0.305% rosmarinic acid, this extract offers antioxidant protection that helps defend against daily stressors, soften the look of fine lines, and promote a brighter, more vibrant complexion. 

Natural Shine Support: Lemon Balm’s gentle astringency helps reduce the look of surface oil and shine, contributing to a smoother appearance. This quality makes it especially valuable in formulations for oily skin. 

A Gentle Foundation: Carried in corn sugar–derived propanediol, the extract blends seamlessly into formulations, enhancing clarity, stability, and texture while providing a biodegradable alternative to petroleum-based glycols. 


DESCRIPTION 

Meet Melissa, one of the gentlest members of the mint family. Also known as Melissa officinalis, Lemon Balm has long been cherished for the calm and balance it brings to skin and hair care. Our Lemon Balm Liquid Extract – 100% Natural (Standardized) contains 0.305% rosmarinic acid, a polyphenolic compound also found in mint-family botanicals such as Rosemary and Sweet Basil. Along with its natural flavonoids and polyphenols, it helps refresh the complexion, bring clarity to the skin, and enhance the natural vitality of hair with light, balanced care. 

With its mild astringent qualities, Lemon Balm is especially suited to oily skin, helping to ease congestion and refine texture for a clearer, more balanced look. 

Blended with corn sugar–derived propanediol, this extract slips easily into serums, creams, masks, and cleansing products, offering stability and a smooth, elegant finish across skin and hair care formulations.
