Properties: Provides multifunctional benefits in skin care formulations including uniform delivery of actives, pigments and solids while reducing or eliminating the need for emulsifiers. It forms shear thinning emulsions that provide a positive sensory feel while improving skin hydration. It can stabilize emulsions over a broad pH range and accommodate high oil and fat loadings, including silicones. Forms gelled oil-in-water and water-in-gelled-oil emulsions that are pH insensitive. Gels can be water friendly or water insoluble. Can include large amounts of silicones in formulations. Ads water-resistance to sunscreens and stabilizes inorganic UV filters. Compatible with common emollients used in sun care emulsions. Provides excellent skin feel with low tack. Acts also as emulsion stabilizers and reduces the need for primary emulsifiers in formulas. |
