Simplifying Oil-in-Water Emulsions
Sweetch’s StabiCare Cold is a natural emulsifier designed to facilitate the cold processing of oil-in-water emulsions, significantly reducing the environmental impact of skincare production while ensuring high product stability. This technology allows for substantial oil incorporation into water, enabling developers to create a variety of products, from lightweight sprays to rich butters.
Reliable Blooming Performance
Additionally, Sweetch offers StabiCare Bloom, which features a natural polymeric ester structure that enhances the hydrophilicity of oils. The company claims that by using 25% of StabiCare Bloom, formulators can ensure blooming performance without the lengthy trial and error of mixing various oils. “The sheer force of the tap activates the product, causing the foam to emerge like a flower in bloom,” notes Sweetch.
StabiCare Bloom also enhances foam quality and sensory attributes in products such as shower oils, bath oils, and baby oils, and is gentle enough for use around the eyes and lips in cleansers and makeup removers.
A New Multifunctional Ingredient for Minimalist Beauty
Finally, Sweetch’s StabiCare Solub is a natural, cold-processed solubilizer that remains water-clear while boosting preservatives, making it ideal for minimalist formulations. This technology dissolves oils in water while keeping the product transparent and enhancing the effectiveness of preservation systems. StabiCare Solub is suitable for micellar waters, toners, transparent shower gels, serums, and eaux de toilette.
Eco-Friendly Exfoliation from Walnut Shells
“Walnut shells provide natural exfoliation and gentle abrasion, improving skin texture for a smoother, brighter complexion,” explains Helen Cantrell, director of sales and marketing at Eco-Shell. She adds, “Walnut shell powder effectively unclogs pores, removes dead skin cells, and excess oils safely and naturally. Additionally, it can help reduce acne and redness by clearing and shrinking pores.”
As a result, these materials are commonly used in face, hand, body, and foot scrubs, as well as exfoliating cleansers. “Sustainably sourced and processed, walnut shells from Eco-Shell enhance the sustainability profile of facial skincare products,” Cantrell states. They are sustainably grown and processed, BSE-/TSE-free, pesticide-free, non-GMO, and free from heavy metals. Eco-Shell holds several certifications, including Ecocert, ASO Cert, and halal, ensuring quality and compliance.
