Cosmetics & Personal Care Formulations with Humectants

This cleansing formulation leaves the skin feeling smooth and moisturized. Glucamate™ DOE-120 Thickener and Glucquat™ 125 Humectant, two naturally-derived ingredients, add body and provide a rich skinfeel. Chemonic™ LI-7 Surfactant is a naturally-derived low irritation nonionic surfactant that boosts viscosity and emolliency.

This innovative Foaming Liquid Soap has low viscosity and rich, abundant foam when applied through the foaming valve. The foam's creaminess and stability is provided by Merquat™ 740 conditioning polymer and by the surfactant system. This system consists of the naturally derived soap Potassium Cocoate, Chembetaine™ OL-30 surfactant which delivers an emollient sensory, Chemoxide™ LO-PF amine oxide which boosts the foam and helps to stabilize the formula, and Chemonic™ LI-7 surfactant which aids in the solubilization of the fragrance and imparts emolliency to the skin. Glucquat™ 125 humectant, derived from corn and other sources, promotes humectancy to the skin. A formulation by Lubrizol.

It is well known that color treatment can cause hair to become excessively dry.

Cocoamidopropyl Betaine and Cocamide DEA function as rinsing aids for the dyes.
