Croda Beauty is highlighting its latest range of ceramides at the NYSCC Suppliers’ Day trade show in New York.
SphingoCare is naturally derived using biofermentation to make lipids used in lotions, cosmetics, and hair care products.
Ceramides are fatty acids that play a key role in skin barrier function, protecting skin from dryness and germs.
These trusted ingredients offer extended skin and hair care activities such as skin ageing, scalp wellbeing, soothing, environmental protection, lip care, microbiome balance, and hair cuticle repair.
Also on show at booth 1019 is Luceane, an active obtained by biofermentation of the Pseudoalteromonas strain.
Luceane boosts cell energy to combat hypoxiageing increased by pollution. It also acts on skin holobiont to reinforce barrier function.
Results include reduced premature skin ageing by five years in one month, decreased immediate skin fatigue, and oxygenated, smooth, radiant skin.
Also on show is an ultra-mild sophorolipid biosurfactant produced via biotechnology, NatraFusion SL HA, which offers an alternative to traditional surfactant chemistries used in personal care applications.
When used as a co-surfactant, it offers synergistic mildness and cleansing-boosting benefits with no detrimental impact on foam production.
Elsewhere, Crodamol GTS a patented, vegetable-derived emollient that provides exceptional smoothness and shine across multiple hair types.
Suitable applications include shampoos, rinse-off conditioners, leave-in conditioners, treatments, hair styling, hair colour, skincare, body care, and colour cosmetics.
Meanwhile, Phytessence Osmanthus is a proven antioxidant. Its soothing properties protect the skin from the harmful effects of heat, reduce redness, and soothe the skin after sunburn.
Finally, Croda’s 100% bio-based ECO Range is comprised of renewable surfactants derived from biomass sources instead of fossil fuels.
These ingredients are manufactured using renewable energy and offer the same performance as traditional options, contributing to a more sustainable future for the beauty industry.
