Addition to naturals range
Natural Sourcing has introduced Chokeberry Seed Oil into its catalogue of certified organic and conventional natural ingredients for personal care product development. “Chokeberry Seed Oil absorbs rapidly and serves as a versatile, nutritive oil within a wide array of cosmetic, personal care and aromatherapy applications,” said Kibby Mitra, chief executive officer of Natural Sourcing. “It is a primarily polyunsaturated oil that helps to soften, soothe and protect the skin, leaving it feeling nourished and hydrated. It is well suited for sensitive, parched, dry, itchy, mature and problem skin types. Within scalp and hair care applications,
Chokeberry Seed Oil helps to condition and restore vitality to the scalp and normal, dry and damaged hair.”
Natural Sourcing’s Chokeberry Seed Oil is expeller pressed and filtered. The Aronia melanocarpa shrub produces small chokeberries that are encased in a skin that is dark purple to black in hue. When consumed raw, the berries are extremely tart, thus lending to its chokeberry nickname. These astringent, flavourful, polyphenol-rich berries are commonly used in jams, syrups, wines, juices, tisanes, flavourings and other culinary applications.
Natural Dry Volatile Light and fresh
A sustainable, renewable, naturally-derived alkane
Jeen International has launched Jeechem NDA, a new emollient that acts as a functional replacement to all synthetic/petrochemical derived alkanes. It is a high purity tetradecane hydrocarbon derived from all- natural raw materials that are renewable, sustainable, and completely biodegradable.
Jeechem NDA combines unique characteristics of being simultaneously natural, dry, volatile, and light and fresh and can be formulated into body care products (including face and eye area), sun care products, all colour/decorative cosmetics, and hair care products. Its volatile nature makes it fast absorbing with a
light feel and a pleasant dry end feel. This low viscosity non-polar fast spreading emollient is also highly resistant to oxidation, even in extreme pH range environments. Jeechem NDA is colourless and odourless, and is compatible with silicones, UV filters, and most lipophilic ingredients.
