Willow Bark Extract is derived from the bark of the black willow tree. Willow bark extract contains 10% salicylates. In its standardized form, willow bark extract provides consistent levels of salicylates, commonly referred to as natural salicylic acid, allowing for its use as an active ingredient. Willow bark extract is completely water-soluble and can be used in any cosmetic formulation to enhance cell turnover, act as a natural antimicrobial agent, or as a replacement for synthetic salicylic acid.
