This new raw material is an excellent natural thickener for oils and can convert every liquid oil into a solid product. dermofeel viscolid works with mineral oils, silicons, ester oils and vegetable oils that can be mixed with essential oils too.
The solidifying properties of this 100% natural raw material make it possible to increase the viscosity of W/O emulsions without increasing the body or sensorial profile of the formulation.
However, the main application may be the production of Spa products. The viscosity of massage products can easily be increased with the help of dermofeel viscolid but on the skin the jellified oil melts and recovers its original liquid and oily skin feel. Thus upon melting on the skin it does not change the skin feel of the massage oil. This presentation covers examples and data of lab tests with various oils and mixtures showing the dose-dependant thickening effect. There are also formulation examples given presenting the application range for this ingredient.
The new O/W cold emulsifier dermofeel easymuls is 100% natural. The liquid emulsifier is easy to use and produces light emulsions, especially suitable for lotions, milks and sprayable formulations. A further advantage is the applicability in cold production, which makes it also interesting for wet-wipe production and many other concepts. The cold production can be applied to all kinds of emulsions and is especially useful, when heat-sensitive actives are used too. The light, low viscous textures of the finished products are ideal for the sensorial trend especially for Asia and warmer regions in general. The presentation gives insight in formulating light emulsions with different oil content and serum type products.
