Animal-free lanolin substitute with water absorption capacity of 200 %. The pale, odorless, semisolid paste has powerful emusifying properties and is suitable for emulsions and anhydrous systems. Provides a very rich skin feel and enhances gloss.
In skin care products it can be used as emulsifier, stabilizer, emollient, and moisturizer. In lipsticks it functions as film modifier and crystal inhibitor for more uniformly dispersed pigments, and can be used as gloss-enhancing agent. In shampoos, shower gels and soaps it works as a conditioning and re-fatting agent, minimizes dehydration of the skin by detergents, and supports perfume retention. Also works as a protective firming component and adds gloss in hair styling products.
