Creating Sustainable Yet Appealing Skin Care Textures

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=""]Presentation of a nature-derived, biodegradable thickener that can offer clarity and suspension in skincare products, and study of its synergy with electrolytes to improve its efficiency.

Polymers have been used as rheology and texture modifiers in skin care for many years. Among all polymers, acrylates are still the most widely used in formulation due to their low cost, efficiency, and wide variety. Regardless of their benefits, acrylates have some shortfalls, such as low sustainability along with poor tolerance to electrolytes and relatively low slip.
Cellulosic thickeners have origins in nature (unlike the acrylates) as they are traditionally derived from cotton fibers and/or trees. The cellulose is then reacted with various functional groups to produce several variants which have been used successfully as thickeners for various applications in personal care for decades, but they were never able to exhibit suspending properties. A unique carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), sold under the tradename natrathix™ bio cellulose, with specific degrees of substitution and polymerization has recently been designed to deliver suspension.
During this workshop, we will demonstrate how this innovative CMC behaves in a variety of formulations with varying particles, oil phase content and with different emulsifiers. In addition, we will explore synergies between natrathix™ bio cellulose with commonly used electrolytes to deliver nice clear serums, shower gels and creams.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
