DESCRIPTION
Menthol Crystals are derived from the Mentha arvensis botanical, a prominent Mint variety renowned for its naturally occurring Menthol content. These crystals are a staple in personal care formulations due to their exceptional properties and versatile applications.
In their natural state at room temperature, Menthol Crystals appear as colorless or white, small, solid, and brittle crystalline matter with a satiny and waxy texture. When exposed to temperatures above room temperature, they begin to melt and can easily dissolve in essential oils, water, oil, or alcohol, making them highly adaptable for various formulations.
As a cosmetic ingredient, Menthol Crystals are prized for their ability to impart a cooling effect and are featured in makeup formulations aimed at plumping and refreshing the skin. In hair care products, they help regulate oil production and clear away buildup, while their deodorizing properties leave your skin and hair feeling fresh and clean.
Overall, Menthol Crystals Organic Raw Material is a highly valued ingredient in personal care products, offering a range of benefits that enhance the efficacy and sensory experience of various formulations. Organic Menthol Crystals are Kosher and Vegan Certified.
