Gotu Kola Liquid Extract — Centella asiatica — Cosmetic Grade

Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica) is one of the most well-researched botanical actives in modern cosmetic formulation. Revered in both Ayurvedic and Traditional Chinese Medicine for centuries, it has earned its place in contemporary skincare science through a growing body of clinical evidence supporting its role in wound healing, collagen synthesis, skin barrier repair, and anti-inflammatory activity.

This liquid extract delivers the key bioactive compounds of Centella asiatica — including asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic acid, and madecassic acid (collectively known as centelloids) — in a ready-to-use, water-soluble form for direct incorporation into the water phase of serums, essences, toners, moisturizers, and treatment formulations.

Professional cosmetic ingredient — not a finished product.

Key Benefits

  • Collagen synthesis stimulation — asiaticoside and madecassoside stimulate fibroblast proliferation and collagen I and III synthesis; supports skin firmness, elasticity, and wound healing
  • Skin barrier repair — promotes ceramide synthesis and epidermal differentiation; strengthens the skin barrier and reduces transepidermal water loss (TEWL)
  • Anti-inflammatory & soothing — madecassoside inhibits inflammatory cytokines; reduces redness, irritation, and sensitivity; suitable for reactive, rosacea-prone, and post-procedure skin
  • Antioxidant protection — neutralizes free radicals and reduces oxidative stress-driven skin aging
  • Brightening support — complements tyrosinase-inhibiting actives; contributes to overall skin radiance and tone evenness
  • Wound healing & scar support — traditionally and clinically used to support healing of minor wounds, burns, and post-procedure skin; reduces hypertrophic scarring

How to Use

  • Incorporation: Add directly to the water phase or at cool-down (below 40°C) to preserve heat-sensitive phytochemicals
  • Recommended Usage Rate: 1–10% in finished formulations (2–5% most common for serums and moisturizers)
  • Solubility: Water-soluble; incorporate in the water phase
  • Processing temperature: Add at cool-down (below 40°C) preferred; avoid prolonged high heat
  • pH & shelf life: Refer to your supplier’s Certificate of Analysis (CoA) or Technical Data Sheet (TDS) for confirmed values
