Thickeners
Thickeners for Cosmetic Products
Cosmetic thickeners increase viscosity
Much of the feel and usability of a cosmetic formulation depends upon the viscosity and feel. Cosmetic Thickeners allow you to easily change the viscosity of your product, whilst adding feel and sensory enhancement.
The thickeners can aid skin feel
Glyceryl oleate not only improves the viscosity of your product, but also adds re-fatting properties which will help with the feel and efficiacy of your finished product.
Cold and Hot Process
Some of the thickeners require melting and are thus suitable only for hot process production. Other ingredients, such as Carbomer are perfect for cold process thickening.
