Hair care:Styling Foam
by Lubrizol
AMP-Acrylates/Allyl Methacrylate Copolymer is incorporated into a crystal clear, weightless styling foam. This product provides strong hold due to the high actives level of the fixative, yet has good properties on wet hair due to the inclusion of PEG-33 and PEG-8 Dimethicone and PEG-14. This styling foam leaves hair with a long lasting hold that remains soft to the touch and free of tack (on both wet and dry hair). In addition, this styling foam has excellent foam quality and foam cell size – created without the use of potentially irritating surfactants.
Fixatives
Category overviewFixatives are liquids or fine powders which provide long-lasting hold in hair styling and fragrance formulations. They create flexible or firm films, ensuring durability while resisting humidity and sweat.
Popular INCI ingredients in this segment include Acrylates copolymers and PVP. Non-sticky, natural-finish formulas are trending. Regulations focus on VOC content and allowable film-former concentrations.
Hair Care: Sustainable Sculpting Spritz
This alcohol free spritz uses BIOSTYLE™ CGP polymer to provide stiffness and humidity resistance in a more natural working spray system. This water-based formula helps to sculpt and style wet hair and provides medium hold and stiffness when dry. The maltodextrin-derived BIOSTYLE CGP polymer is a low viscosity, easy to formulate liquid that requires no heating or neutralization, giving the formulator a simple way to create more natural and sustainable styling products. This working spray, based on the naturally-derived fixative polymer and containing no alcohol or propellants, is an environmentally-preferable way to create high-performance styling aids.
Hair Care: Styling String Spray Mousse
This aerosol styling mousse, which complies with CARB's 6% VOC mousse regulation, allows for "hands-free" application. BALANCE® CR acrylic fixative provides superior hold and humidity resistance, while CELQUAT® L-200 polymer enhances the formula with excellent wet comb, shine, and feel. This higher viscosity formulation provides foam that looks like 'silky string' when dispensed from the can.

by Eastman
Shear-thinning, spray gel composition
This spray gel composition demonstrates the use of Eastman AQ™ 48 Ultra Polymer as a film-former and hair fixative with Laponite™ XLG to make a translucent gel. The gel holds air bubbles upon standing, but is extremely shear-thinning, providing excellent spray-out from a standard pump-spray container. This formulation provides low tack, excellent hold, curl retention and enhanced gloss.
