What Is Nettle Leaf Glycerin Extract?
Nettle Leaf Glycerin Extract is a topical-grade glycerin extract produced from the leaf of Urtica dioica in glycerin, a water-compatible humectant carrier derived from RSPO-certified palm oil. It is the standard-grade counterpart to the certified-organic version, giving formulators a nettle leaf glycerin extract option without an organic specification. The material is full-spectrum and non-standardized, produced with the Bio-Chelated low-heat process to help preserve a Holistically Balanced leaf profile.
Market Demand
Botanical glycerin extracts are a staple of modern clean-beauty briefs, and buyer interest holds firm: Grand View Research estimates the global herbal extract market will climb to USD 53.43 billion by 2030, keeping nettle leaf glycerin extracts in steady demand for facial and scalp care.
Formulation Applications
Because it is glycerin-based, this extract folds into aqueous cosmetic phases such as toners, essences, serums, facial mists, moisturizers, gel masks, and scalp and hair conditioners. It suits brands that want a nettle leaf active in a glycerin base without an organic certification requirement. It can headline botanical and naturally derived personal-care ranges built around leaf extracts.
Why Formulators Choose Bio-Botanica
A family business since 1972, Bio-Botanica manufactures in Hauppauge, New York, at an FDA-inspected cGMP facility and derives its glycerin carrier from RSPO-certified palm oil. Lots undergo identity, microbial, USP, and heavy-metal testing in an onsite lab using instrumentation including HPLC and LC/MS, supported by third-party labs. Kosher and Halal certification are available, and samples ship with a Spec Sheet/TDS, a representative COA, and an SDS.
