Cosmetic activity for powders

Today make-up products not only colour and make consumers more attractive but they also have expanded their role by offering cosmetic properties (moisturising, anti-ageing, antioxidant, etc.).

Moreover they bet more and more on natural values. To match these two key trends of the make-up market, plant extracts are perfect and become the true must-have active ingredients. Thanks to a unique technique of adsorption on microporous silica, Alban Muller propose that customers adapt their liquid cosmetic ingredients to the specific formulation of make-up powders. They can thus create their own Ami-caps from one of Alban Muller’s numerous Phytamis (more than 160 eco-designed plant extracts) and hightech actives. The principle is easy: they select an active and Alban Muller’s laboratory experts adapt it to create their Ami-caps. When applied on the skin with the powder, the extract is naturally released on contact with the skin through a phenomenon of slow adsorption-desadsorption between molecules with different polarities: water and the extract. Ami-caps can be incorporated into any powder formulation, pressed or loose (blush, eye shadow, face powder, bronzer, etc.) and thus make-up powders can claim to have cosmetic activities.
