🐟

Collagen Peptides

Low molecular weight collagen peptides (2000-5000 Da) from marine, bovine, and porcine sources. Freeze-drying preserves triple helix structure and bioavailability for maximum skin penetration.

  • Marine collagen (Type I, from fish skin/scales)
  • Bovine collagen (Type I & III, grass-fed sources)
  • Porcine collagen (Type I, pharmaceutical grade)
  • Molecular weight: 2000-5000 Da (optimized absorption)
  • Protein content: >90%, moisture <5%
  • Halal & Kosher certification available
💧

Hyaluronic Acid Powder

Ultra-pure hyaluronic acid (HA) powder in multiple molecular weights for different skin penetration depths. Freeze-dried to maintain hygroscopic properties and water-binding capacity.

  • High MW HA (1.5-2.0 MDa) – surface hydration
  • Medium MW HA (500-800 kDa) – dermal layer
  • Low MW HA (50-200 kDa) – deep penetration
  • Purity: >95%, endotoxin <0.1 EU/mg
  • Water-binding capacity: 1000x its weight
  • Microbial-free fermentation source
🌸

Botanical Extracts

Freeze-dried plant extracts and phytoactives with preserved polyphenols, flavonoids, and antioxidant compounds. Superior to solvent extraction for heat-sensitive botanicals.

  • Rose, chamomile, lavender extracts
  • Green tea (EGCG preserved), grape seed (OPC)
  • Aloe vera powder (acemannan content maintained)
  • Ginseng, ginkgo biloba, centella asiatica
  • Plant stem cell extracts (apple, edelweiss)
  • Organic certification available

Anti-Aging Actives

Freeze-dried peptides, growth factors, and bioactive compounds for advanced anti-aging formulations. Pharmaceutical-grade processing ensures maximum potency and stability.

  • Copper peptides (GHK-Cu, skin regeneration)
  • Matrixyl peptides (collagen synthesis)
  • EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor) powder
  • Coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone, antioxidant)
  • Resveratrol, astaxanthin powders
  • Stability testing: 24-month shelf life

GMPC-Certified Cosmetic Processing Protocol

Good Manufacturing Practice for Cosmetics (GMPC) ensures every batch meets international cosmetic safety standards. Our process maintains ingredient integrity from raw material to finished powder.

1

Raw Material Qualification & Testing

All raw materials undergo identity verification (HPLC, FTIR), purity testing, and microbial screening. Supplier audits ensure consistent quality. Materials stored in climate-controlled warehouses with real-time monitoring.

Identity: HPLC/FTIR match
Purity: >95% active
Microbial: <100 CFU/g

2

Solution Preparation & Filtration

Precise weighing and dissolution in purified water or buffer solution. pH adjustment to optimal range for stability. Sterile filtration (0.22μm) removes particulates and microorganisms before freeze-drying.

pH Control: ±0.1 units
Filtration: 0.22μm sterile
Concentration: Optimized

3

Controlled-Rate Freezing

Programmable freezing from +4°C to -40°C at controlled rates (0.5-2°C/min) prevents protein denaturation and maintains molecular structure. Annealing step optimizes ice crystal formation.

Freezing Rate: 0.5-2°C/min
Final Temp: -40°C
Annealing: -10°C, 2h

4

Primary & Secondary Drying

Vacuum application (0.01-0.1 mbar) with gradual temperature increase removes water through sublimation. Secondary drying at elevated temperature removes bound water. Final moisture <5% ensures long-term stability.

Primary: -30°C, 0.05 mbar, 24-36h
Secondary: +25°C, 0.01 mbar, 8-12h
Final Moisture: <5%

5

Milling, Packaging & Storage

Gentle milling to uniform particle size (100-300 mesh) in nitrogen atmosphere. Nitrogen-flushed packaging in aluminum foil bags with desiccant. Storage in climate-controlled warehouse (15-25°C, <60% RH).

Particle: 100-300 mesh
Nitrogen: >99.9% purity
Storage: 15-25°C, <60% RH

Comprehensive Cosmetic Testing

Every batch undergoes extensive testing to ensure cosmetic safety, efficacy, and regulatory compliance. Our analytical laboratory uses validated methods for complete quality verification.
