Baycusan brand polyurethane dispersions from Bayer MaterialScience enable numerous new applications and have become established as multifunctional raw materials for the beauty industry. Bayer highlighted new product grades and formulations of Baycusan C raw materials at the New York Society of Cosmetic Chemists’ Suppliers’ Day 2015.
Baycusan C 2000 is a new polymer for transparent sun protection. In sunscreen gels, practical aerosol sprays and nourishing sun oils, this innovative new ingredient can help produce sun care solutions that deliver a high SPF (sun protection factor) and also feel great on skin.
Baycusan C 1008 protects hair against the effects of heat and humidity while also offering natural gloss and flexible hold. In fact, adding just 2 per cent of this ingredient is enough to give hair care formulations the triple benefit of ‘Protect – Repair – Style’.
Baycusan C 1004 and sensory additive Baycusan C 1005 set new benchmarks in makeup performance with excellent results in long-lasting colour expression and sensory properties. Four formulation lines feature this innovative film former and powder:
- ColorFoundation – ensures the perfect ‘nude’ look every day.
- ColorMascara – creates visually longer lashes that really last.
- ColorEyeliner – the secret to dramatic eye definition that is easy to remove.
- ColorLipstick – helps create intensive colours for soft lips.
