At the Making Cosmetics 2014 in Coventry, UK KahlWax will be presenting new highlights from the portfolio on Stand 323: waxes that fulfill consumer demand for greater naturalness – and offer the cosmetics industry attractive, effective alternatives.
The trend towards greater naturalness continues at great pace. At the Making Cosmetics 2014 KahlWax will be presenting innovative solutions which open up fresh perspectives for the cosmetics industry.
Soft waxes are one of KahlWax's new highlights: they condition the skin and make it soft to the touch, giving a luxurious skin feel. Thanks to their low melting points, they are ideal for lip care, massage products, skin care and mascara.
• Kahlwax 2121 offers all the advantages of argan oil without any of the disadvantages: the wax is durable and has a stable odour and colour. It revitalises and protects the skin, improving elasticity. Used in hair applications it adds shine and conditions the scalp.
• Kahlwax 6237 is the new rapeseed wax by KahlWax. Its buttery consistency bridges the gap between harder waxes and liquid emollients. In end products it makes the skin feel soft, protects against dehydration and boosts the skin's elasticity. It also helps to diminish the appearance of skin discolouration and scars. It adds beautiful shine to the hair and conditions the scalp. Kahlwax 6237 is ideal for massage candles.
If emulsion formulations call for waxes with a higher melting point then KahlWax's water-soluble / self-emulsifying waxes are the ideal solution. They provide many benefits in the end product, including a pleasantly light sensation on the skin, and they enhance the appearance of the skin.
• Kahlwax 5109 is highly suitable for use in oil/water formulations. It is based on sunflower wax and carnauba wax.
• Kahlwax 5115 combines the benefits of rice wax and myrica wax and has been specially optimised for use in oil/water formulations.
The new KahlPhytoWax 9928 is based on pure, plant-derived waxes and was specially developed as an alternative to beeswax. This wax is the perfect solution for formulations without animal products, e.g. in vegan products, thanks to its product characteristics. KahlPhytoWax 9928 is suitable for use in a wide
range of water-in-oil formulations, including hair wax, day creams and lotions.
