Can One Bio-Based Ingredient Be a Formulator’s Troubleshooting Toolbox?

Derived from the most abundant material on earth, celullose, Valida is a natural, biodegradable and multi-functional ingredient sourced from PEFC-certified wood pulp. It should be in every cosmetic formulator’s toolbox as it can:

– Provide stability of formulations without increasing viscosity; think K-beauty textures without the need to shake-before-use!

– Provide silicone-like skin feel and blurring effect, without being tacky or shiny; it can reduce pilling.

– Offer SPF boosting in sunscreen.

– Create richer, creamier foams as well as offer foam-boosting of natural surfactants.
