COMPANY INFORMATION

We believe that it's possible to replace synthetic raw materials in cosmetic formulations, without compromise. Our easy-to-use, naturally-derived blends are created using safe, raw materials and provide high-performance alternatives to synthetic products. Our range started with sugar chemistry, providing natural ways to thicken oil or water-based systems and has evolved to include unusual emulsion systems and gelling agents. With a Gold EcoVadis rating and 90% of our entire product range either COSMOS approved or certified – we are proud of our sustainable approach to providing natural ingredients.

Details of our full product range can be viewed here.

New from Alchemy Ingredients

Luxamul® - The Cold Process, Active-Compatible Emulsifier

A cold process emulsifier that creates luxurious, cream-gel textures. This easy to use powder provides an all-in-one solution for thickening and emulsification that is also highly compatible with a wide range of actives, including acids, electrolytes, enzymes and solvents.

100% naturally derived, it is based on Soapberry saponins which are extracted using only water to give a concentrated emulsifier with excellent stabilising properties. This, combined with natural gums, enables the creation of smooth and stable serums, lotions and creams with a luxuriously silky, silicone-like feel.

Sophocoll® - Collagen-Lipid Bio-surfactant Blend

A 100% naturally derived bio-surfactant blend that can be used to boost foam and increase moisturisation of surfactant based products.

A collagen-lipid bio-surfactant complex, Sophocoll® creates a soft, creamy foam that acts as an effective cleanser – gently removing even waterproof make up without stripping the skin. This mild ingredient can be used on its own or combined with other surfactants to strengthen and moisturise both skin and hair – making it perfect for use in a wide range of applications from shampoo to micellar waters,  shower gels to face wash.
