White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract

What is White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract, and what species and plant part does it come from?

White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract is a cosmetic glycerin extract made from the leaf of White Tea (Camellia sinensis), a member of the Theaceae family. Bio-Botanica extracts it at its FDA-inspected cGMP facility in Hauppauge, New York using the proprietary Bio-Chelated low-heat, cold-extraction process, so the finished extract carries a full-spectrum, Holistically Balanced profile of the naturally occurring constituents of Camellia sinensis leaf.

What extract form is this, and what is it carried in?

White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract is a cosmetic glycerin extract, and the carrier is glycerin. The carrier is what the finished White Tea extract is delivered in — it is not the extraction solvent, which is Bio-Botanica's Bio-Chelated low-heat process. The glycerin carrier is confirmed on the Spec Sheet/TDS that ships with samples.

Does White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract contain alcohol?

No. White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract contains no ethanol. It is a cosmetic glycerin extract delivered in a glycerin carrier, which is the format formulators choose when an alcohol-free White Tea extract is required. Residual-solvent details for your lot are documented on the Spec Sheet/TDS and representative COA.

Is White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract standardized to a specific compound?

No. White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract is a full-spectrum, Holistically Balanced extract and is non-standardized — it reflects the naturally occurring constituents of Camellia sinensis leaf rather than an isolated, quantified compound. Where a specification requires standardization to a marker, Bio-Botanica can quote a standardized extract to your requirement.

Is White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract for ingestible or topical formulas?

White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract is formulated for cosmetic and personal-care products and is intended for topical use. It is supplied at cosmetic use levels and is distinct from Bio-Botanica's full-strength ingestible extracts, which are formulated for food, beverage and supplement products. Do not specify this Part ID into an ingestible formula; ask our team for the ingestible White Tea equivalent.

What applications and formats is White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract suited for?

White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract is supplied in bulk as a formulation base, and it suits the water phase of toners, essences, serums, mists, sheet-mask fluids, gels, lotions and creams, as well as shampoos, conditioners and scalp treatments. Bio-Botanica supplies the extract and its documentation; dose level and finished-product claims are set by your own formulation and regulatory review.

What industries and positioning does White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract fit?

White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract fits the Cosmetics and Personal Care industry. White Tea is traditionally associated with skin- and hair-care positioning — structure/function positioning only, not a consumer health claim. Any claim on a finished product is determined and substantiated by the brand and its regulatory review.

Where does White Tea originate?

Camellia sinensis is native to Southwestern China, the eastern Himalaya, and mainland Southeast Asia. White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract is manufactured in the United States at Bio-Botanica's Hauppauge, New York facility, and sourcing and origin details for a given lot are documented on the TDS that accompanies samples.

How does White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract behave for solubility and compatibility?

White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract is water-compatible. The glycerin carrier blends into the aqueous phase during cold or gentle warm processing, which is why formulators reach for it in water-based systems. Evaluate a sample in your own matrix to confirm compatibility, and review the Spec Sheet/TDS for handling and storage.

What certifications are available for this ingredient?

Bio-Botanica operates under NSF, cGMP and FSSC 22000 quality systems, and Kosher, Halal and Organic certification is available. The Hauppauge, New York facility is FDA-inspected. Certification for a specific order of White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract can be confirmed with our team when you request a quote.

What documentation ships with White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract?

Samples of White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract ship with a Spec Sheet/TDS, a representative COA and an SDS. Together these document the extract form, the glycerin carrier, the botanical identity and the testing performed, so your quality and regulatory teams can evaluate the ingredient against your own specifications.

How is White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract sold, and what about samples and MOQ?

White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract is sold in bulk to formulators and brands, not as a finished consumer product, and is offered in pack sizes of 4 kg, 10 kg, 19 kg, and 200 kg. Pricing is available by requesting a formal quote — our team quotes to your chosen pack size and volume, and samples ship with full documentation so you can assess fit before committing.

How is White Tea Leaf Glycerin Extract manufactured and tested?
