Ursolic Acid 98%
CAS No.: 77-52-1
Scientific Overview & Manufacturing Excellence
We specialize in the contract manufacturing and stable bulk supply of 98% Ursolic Acid, a high-purity natural triterpene monomer meticulously extracted and refined from rosemary leaves. It is a highly sought-after multi-functional cosmetic raw material globally recognized for its exceptional anti-inflammatory, antibacterial oil-control, and skin-tightening properties.
Our factory adopts advanced low-temperature extraction and multi-stage secondary recrystallization purification technology. The finished product is a uniform white fine powder characterized by low impurity content, stable activity, and consistent quality among batches. All production processes are executed in GMP-standard dust-free workshops with full ISO9001 certification and complete batch traceability. Every batch is rigorously calibrated by HPLC to ensure a stable ≥98.0% purity index.
Pharmacological Profile & Core Functions
Relieve Skin Inflammation & Repair Damaged Barrier
Ursolic acid features a unique triterpene structure that effectively suppresses the release of inflammatory factors. It rapidly soothes red, irritated, and damaged skin caused by stubborn acne and external environmental stimulation.
Antibacterial & Oil Balance for Acne-Prone Skin
It strongly inhibits the reproduction of acne-causing bacteria while regulating sebaceous gland secretion. This significantly reduces overall oiliness, improving the condition of inflammatory acne and closed comedones to balance an oily, acne-prone skin state.
Refine Texture & Lift Sagging Skin
Promotes dermal collagen activity to visibly firm loose, sagging skin. It smoothes rough skin textures, helping to achieve a highly delicate, tightened, and elastic skin condition over sustained use.
API Formulation Objectives & Target Application Scenarios
Our 98% HPLC-grade Ursolic Acid complies with stringent international cosmetic raw material safety regulations (EU & FDA) and offers excellent formulation compatibility (dispersible in ethanol, propylene glycol, and cream matrices), widely utilized in:
✔ Oil Control & Acne Series: Core active for acne essences, acne creams, and intensive oil-balancing toners.
✔ Sensitive Soothing Repair Series: Ideal for post-inflammatory redness repair lotions and deep barrier repair creams.
✔ Anti-Aging Firming Series: Essential for lifting serums, anti-sagging facial creams, and rough skin refining masks.
✔ Professional Medical Beauty: Deployed in salon-exclusive compound skincare raw material formulations.

Precautions & Formulation Guidelines
Storage Notice: Ursolic acid is slightly photosensitive. Keep tightly sealed after opening the package. Avoid long-term exposure to direct sunlight and high-temperature environments to prevent activity decline.
Solubility Tip: It is insoluble in pure water. Formulators must match it with polyols (e.g., propylene glycol, glycerin) acting as cosolvents for water-based skincare formulas to ensure proper dispersion and avoid precipitation.
Production Operation Protection: Personnel must wear dust masks and gloves during weighing and feeding to prevent the inhalation of fine powder, which may cause mild respiratory discomfort.
Suitable Formula pH: The optimal applicable pH range is 4.0–7.2. A strong alkaline environment will permanently destroy the triterpene structure and reduce biological efficacy.
Compatibility Suggestion: It can be effectively compounded with panthenol and Centella asiatica extract to enhance soothing effects. Strictly avoid simultaneous mixing with high-concentration strong oxidants.
Transportation Protection: Must use light-proof and moisture-proof double-layer packaging. Prevent any physical extrusion and water seepage during global transportation.
Frequently Asked Questions (Procurement & Formulation)
What is the recommended addition amount of ursolic acid in skincare formulas?
The conventional addition ratio in commercial formulations is 0.2%–1.0%. Formulators can increase the proportion appropriately for intensive acne and firming treatment products, while reducing the dosage for gentle formulas intended for highly sensitive skin.
Can ursolic acid be used in water-based acne essence?
It cannot dissolve in pure water alone. By incorporating 6%–12% propylene glycol or glycerin as a cosolvent, you can achieve uniform dispersion and successfully eliminate precipitation in your water-based serums.
How long can 98% ursolic acid be stored after opening?
The total shelf life is 24 months under sealed, cool, and dark storage conditions. However, if the commercial package is opened, we strongly advise finishing its use within 3 months to ensure the best active efficacy.
Can you provide complete documents for overseas cosmetic filing?
Yes. With extensive global export experience, we supply a full set of HPLC test reports, COAs, MSDS, and microbial/heavy metal safety inspection certificates to fully support brand registration and customs clearance in all target countries.
