Emulsifiers
The Tie that Binds
Emulsions are the most common forms of cosmetic products, whether it be for makeup, hair care or skin care. Formulating any cream or lotion begins with determining the type of emulsion you want to make. Emulsions - two immiscible liquid constituents (such as oil and water) dispersed in one another - are held together by emulsifiers, a substance with a special molecular structure that can reduce the surface tension between the two phases. Emulsifiers, therefore, are indispensable raw materials, particularly in many cosmetic and personal care applications.
R.A. Kelman’s emulsifier ingredient portfolio answers today’s beauty trends that have expanded from the conventional to the modern multi-layering of various skin care products that address specific concerns. Formulating these new and more challenging emulsions is dependent on the selection of a reliable emulsifier.
