Innovative ultra-mild soap-free syndet base
UK-based global speciality ingredients manufacturer Stephenson will showcase its new soap free syndet called Syndopal at in-cosmetics Global 2019, opening the exhibition with a seminar entitled ‘Syndet: The Revolution.’ According to Stephenson, many manufacturers do not have access to the specialist equipment required which means that their product range capability and profitability is restricted. Syndopal is a soap- free, ph 5.5-6.5 base noodle, which produces an ultra-mild syndet bar, ensuring superior cleansing to produce premium quality syndet or combi-bars, which gently remove dirt, oil and make up without disrupting the
skin’s natural barrier. Stephenson have been working on Syndopal for over five years with the objective of creating a high-quality base that enables contract manufacturers and brands to add value to their existing product portfolio. Speaking to Personal Care, James Clews, sales and marketing director of Stephenson, said: “Traditional
syndets tend to be a dry and brittle product making it tricky to process. It meant you had to set up your process equipment specifically for that type of material, which is not like the normal soap bases that bar soap manufacturers were processing. So you were either a soap manufacturer or a syndet manufacturer. Our motivation was really to make syndet accessible to soap makers and so we had the brief to make a syndet that processes like a soap base.”
As well as being 100% soap
free and ultra-mild, other key benefits for consumers include its suitability for sensitive skin, non-irritant, non-drying, paraben free and PEG-free.
Colourful scrubs for gentle exfoliation
At this year’s in-cosmetics Global, Imerys Minerals, a leading player in mineral-based specialties, will be showcasing ImerScrub, an innovative addition to the successful ImerCare white volcanic pearl range for gentle exfoliation. ImerScrub is a full range of spherical, coloured perlites developed using patented technology to provide a refined,
aesthetic effect in exfoliating products.
ImerScrub is currently available
in five different shades: Jade, Coral, Gold, Amber, and Plum. “This new coloured range is a huge step forward for the replacement of plastic beads in cosmetics with natural ingredients. It opens new horizons for our customers through minerals in
cosmetics and rounds out the current white scrub range perfectly,” said Thierry Casteran, global business development director.
Imerys Minerals will showcase these novel ingredients at the Innovation Zone and Sensory Bar at in-cosmetics Global this month where Imerys Minerals will exhibit on booth T120.
