Standardized Ellagic Acid for Brightening and Defense
Ellagic acid is the star polyphenol of pomegranate. Our extract powder is standardized to 40% ellagic acid, making it a precise brightening and antioxidant active for serums and creams.
Pomegranate: Origin and Heritage
Ellagic acid is found in pomegranate peel and fruit as part of larger ellagitannins. Standardizing a powder to 40% ellagic acid involves concentrating and purifying this fraction, producing a targeted grade quite different from a whole-fruit ratio extract.
Why Formulators Choose Pomegranate Extract Powder 40% Ellagic Acid
This is a different, more targeted grade than our existing pomegranate powder. Standardization plus a concentration higher than many market grades means very low doses deliver a defined active.
