Licorice Hydroglycerinated Extract in Bulk for Cosmetics

Licorice hydroglycerinated extract is a plant-based active derived from organically grown Glycyrrhiza glabra, supplied in bulk to cosmetic laboratories and artisan soap makers. This guide covers what it is, how it is obtained, and its specific applications in cosmetic formulation, from brightening creams to soothing products for sensitive skin, with a focus on professional B2B use.

What is Licorice Hydroglycerinated Extract?

This extract is obtained by macerating licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra) in a base of vegetable glycerin and water, a process that draws out its active compounds without harsh solvents. The raw material comes from certified organic cultivation, ensuring traceability and the absence of pesticide residues.

Its composition may include flavonoids, glycyrrhizic acid, polyphenols and natural antioxidants, compounds associated with anti-inflammatory, brightening and soothing properties. These characteristics make it a valued ingredient in natural cosmetics, suitable for both water-based formulas and emulsions.

Main Uses of Licorice Hydroglycerinated Extract

Brightening cosmetics. It is a common ingredient in serums and creams aimed at evening out skin tone, thanks to its action on melanin synthesis, integrating well into anti-dark-spot formulas alongside other depigmenting actives.

Soothing care for sensitive skin. Its calming profile makes it suitable for gels, toners and after-sun or reactive-skin creams, where the goal is to reduce tightness and provide immediate comfort after application.

Natural and organic cosmetic formulation. Being organically sourced and easily soluble in the water phase, it is well suited for labs developing certified organic lines, allowing smooth incorporation into shampoos, shower gels and body lotions without altering final texture.

Anti-aging facial cosmetics. Combined with complementary antioxidants, it is used in anti-aging formulas to strengthen protection against skin oxidative stress, adding value to day creams and eye contour products.
