ALTER-EMULGEL is a 100% natural plant extract. Used at 1.3%, it can be used to formulate emulsions (oil in water) with the texture and sensoriality of cream gels. Formulators won’t need to combine co-emulsifiers to obtain emulsions. According to the percentage of oil used, the emulsion texture can vary from a fluid emulsion (between 5 and 10%) to a thick emulsion (between 20 and 25%).

An ideal ingredient for formulating emulsions targeting young, combination and oily skins.

The very white gel emulsion obtained by ALTER-EMULGEL also offers a very sensorial feel, comparable to that of silicones. In fact, according to a sensorial study carried out on an expert panel, ALTER-EMULGEL has shown similar and even better sensoriality on certain parameters than acrylate-based emulsifier-gelifiers currently on the market. Its sensory profile is characterized on application by a very glide comfort After application, the study revealed a extremely soft skin with less stickiness and greasiness.

An Optimum stability

ALTER-EMULGEL is also highly stable to pH variations in the 3 to 6 range. It is compatible with the use of electrolytes, preservatives and ethanol. It is easy to use in formulation, solubilizing very easily in aqueous phases without the need for pre-dispersing. Unlike emulsifier-gelling agents on the market, it does not need to be combined with a co-emulsifier.

This new natural emulsifier opens up new prospects for formulators wishing to replace their acrylate-based emulsifiers. This new plant-based and natural emulsifyer also increases the naturalness of their finished products. With ALTER-EMULGEL and the ALTER-POWDERS range, Lessonia continues to innovate for a more natural and responsible beauty.
