Warning

Concentrated caffeine powder should be stored away from areas where food is prepared to prevent accidental ingestion. Consumption of caffeine powder can lead to heart failure.

Our caffeine powder is a synthetic, high-purity form designed for cosmetic use.

Solubility

• Water Soluble

Appearance

• White Powder

Benefits

• Increases cellular energy
• Can penetrate the skin
• May aid in removing damaged skin

Recommendations

Caffeine may be beneficial for anti-aging and slimming applications.

Applications

Studies have used caffeine in skincare at doses of up to 5%, but we recommend between 0.1-0.5% in topical products. High concentrations can dehydrate the skin, reducing the benefits of caffeine.

Notes on Dermal Penetration

Caffeine can penetrate the skin, with clinical trials showing penetration rates into the bloodstream ranging from 2-10% of the applied dose. The absorption rate depends on the base formula, the concentration used, and the application site. Follicular delivery is efficient, which is why caffeine is often added to hair care products.

Cautions

• Not suitable for products intended for children.
• Exercise caution during pregnancy; caffeine levels should be monitored to ensure they remain within recommended guidelines.

Dose Rate

The recommended dose is between 0.1-0.5%.
