Solvents and Emollients

Make it More Efficient

Solvents and emollients contribute to the efficacy and sensory experience of cosmetics products. They are essential for the proper delivery of active ingredients, enhancing the performance of products like lotions, creams, and serums. The ideal solvent and emollient for a formulation is chosen for its ability to dissolve specific ingredients and improve the texture and feel of the final product.  

Help Spread it Around

Solvents and emollients are especially relevant in formulations with actives that are difficult to solubilize and incorporate to with other ingredients, such as UV-filters. This combination not only enhances the product’s performance but also improves the user’s experience by delivering a smooth, non-greasy feel.
