Origin
Cinnamomum Zeylanicum Bark Extract, derived from the Ceylon cinnamon tree, is produced by grinding and extracting the bark. The bark is first harvested and dried, then ground into a fine powder or chips. This material is then subjected to extraction processes such as maceration in a suitable solvent like ethanol or water. The solvent extracts the beneficial compounds, including cinnamaldehyde, eugenol, and other phytochemicals. After filtration and purification, the resulting extract is concentrated to obtain a potent form used in cosmetics.
