Thickeners (gelling agents)
Thickeners for cosmetics: creating a gel from water, alcohol and other liquids
Thickeners, or in other words, gelling agents, structure formers, are cosmetic components that are used to thicken cosmetics and increase their viscosity. The use of a gelling agent gives an effect similar to the name - the formation of stable disperse systems.These components are used to improve the external qualities of the product, its presentation, while simultaneously enhancing the consistency itself in foams and emulsions. The origin of thickeners can be either plant-based (sodium alginate, xanthan gum, HEC) or synthetic (aristoflex, sepiplus).
Why should you buy a gelling agent?
- creating gels of varying viscosity
- additional thickening of the aqueous phase of the cream
- emulsion stabilization
- creation of cream gels
- preparation of oil-free cosmetics
