Dow Corning has introduced Dow Corning ES-5300 Formulation Aid, a new benefits-rich water-in-oil silicone emulsifier.
Developed to give formulators greater flexibility and choice, the new Dow Corning technology delivers nextgeneration aesthetics and performance for liquid and cream foundation and sunscreen while maintaining the high stability needed to avoid ingredient separation. Dow Corning ES-5300 Formulation Aid provides oil phase flexibility that can enhance the formulation stability of emulsions, even when a wide variety of ingredients and different ratios of cosmetic oils are incorporated. “Global cosmetics industry demand for newer and better materials that can provide the multiple high-end benefits consumers want in their cream foundation and sun screen has never been greater,” said Stewart Long, global skin care market leader, Beauty Care at Dow Corning. “To meet this demand, formulations are becoming more complex and sophisticated, but each ingredient added to a formulation can have drawbacks that affect the stability of the end product. Dow Corning ES-5300 has been designed to specifically address this need – not only as a proven solution that provides exceptional formulation stability, but also as one that delivers overall improved performance and aesthetics.”
