Lubrizol Life Science - Beauty (LLS Beauty) has revealed new benefits of Kelco-Care diutan gum for skin care, sun care and colour cosmetics formulations.
“Our team of researchers and scientists continue to look for new ways to enhance our nature-based ingredients to meet sustainability goals and consumer expectations,” said Maxime Fougere, global marketing manager, LLS Beauty.
“We’re excited to have found new benefits for Kelco-Care diutan gum that meet these needs.” Key skin care benefits include:
• Immediate moisturising effect that lasts all day long making it a truly multifunctional ingredient for skin care formulations
