Step into a World of Textures with Sisterna sucrose esters!
Modern skincare demands textural diversity and Sisterna sucrose esters deliver. Whether you're formulating light sprays or rich butters, they offer exceptional versatility while improving sensorial appeal, minimizing oiliness, and allowing for cold processing. Even in oil-rich systems, they ensure a soft, luxurious skin.
Experience how sucrose esters elevate formulations like butters, gel-to-milk emulsions, and cream-to-oil textures and unlock new creative potential in texture design.
- ME.019 Light & Soft Body Butter : A rich body butter containing more than 20% of butters and waxes.The emulsifiers Sisterna SP30-C & Sisterna SP70-C and the oil thickener Sisterna A10E-C reduce the greasiness of these butters and solids. This also improves spreadability and gives a lighter skin feel.
- CE.006 Light Cream-to-Oil: A gentle cream with a high percentage of light oils that gives a balanced oily sensation when applying it. This ensures a long playtime and a nice feeling of skin moisturisation, which is also a result of using Sisterna SP70-C.
- GE.006 Good Night Facial Cleanser: A facial cleanser that turns into a milk on the skin when in contact with water. Combining Sisterna SP70-C and Sisterna L70-C gives a lower viscosity which makes it easier to apply on the designated area. Washing of the gel, turning into a milk, gives a velvet-like after feel on the skin.
- SE.011 Gel-Lotion Eye Serum: Making an emulsion with an oil-in-glycerin intermediate emulsification step enables the formation of oil droplet sizes of 0.3 micrometer. This production method is excellent for dosing oil actives which will be boosted, enabling a better skin penetration, creating extremely effective serums.
