Ethoxcare GPHS

Ethoxcare® GPHS is a cost-effective, cold-process, liquid polymeric formulation invert water-in-oil emulsifier that emulsifies mineral oil, esters, soybean oil, D-limonene and other hydrocarbons at room temperature to form elegant, stable emulsions. It is effective at levels less than 0,5% and incorporates aqueous phases at more than 90%. The high water content in an emulsion flashes off quickly to give a cooling effect similar to that of alcohol, so it works well in an after-sun product. It has a low HLB of 4-7.Viscosities of emulsions made range from low/water thin to very high/free standing solids. Ethoxcare® GPHS forms elegant stable emulsions that rub into the skin with ease and leave behind little feel, independent of oil used.  It can also be used as a vehicle for chemicals and mineral sunscreens. No heat or homogenisation is required. Ethoxcare® GPHS increases formulation versatility, improves product performance, simplifies manufacturing and development process, and reduces formulation and manufacturing costs. The Natural Origin Index is 0.59. INCI: Glycereth-18 polyhydroxystearate.

Florlik Hibiscus

Florlik hibiscus is a natural acidifier that aligns cuticles, strengthens the hair, reduces porosity, and provides instant gloss. Hair acidification aims to balance the hair’s pH, especially after chemical processes that raise pH, leaving the hair dull, coarse, and fragile. Hibiscus petals are rich in low molecular weight organic acids, which permeate the fiber and interact with intercuticular pro-
teins, forming new hydrogen bonds that promote cohesion between the lamellae. The cuticles contract and align, creating a flatter, more regular surface. This alignment of the lamellar layers reduces friction between the strands and improves the hair’s ability to reflect light, which results in a lamellar shine. Use level: 1.0 - 3.0 %. INCI name: Hibiscus sabdariffa flower extract (and) phenoxy ethanol (and) ethylhexylglycerin.
