Esters for high performance cosmetics

Lubrizol Life Science describes novel esters that can provide properties such as powder binding, breakage resistance, good pigment dispersion, optimal hardness in sticks and transfer and sweat resistance for colour cosmetics

Bold aesthetics, skin-led sweat-proof formulas, and inclusive colour cosmetics are set to be the driving forces behind makeup trends in 2027.
