Emollient SENSOLENE 30 g

Sensolene as a multifunctional, biocompatible skin emollient of plant origin

Sensolene, obtained from olives, is the best natural alternative to silicones, squalane and squalene. Its fatty acid composition is similar to the lipids of the natural lipid mantle of the skin, which helps to restore the hydrolipid layer of the skin, and its light texture improves the sensory characteristics of cosmetics and increases their spreadability.

Characteristics of the component and features of use

INCI: Ethylhexyl olivate

Dosage (percentage of introduction into cosmetics): 1-10% (read more about dosage in various cosmetics below)

Solubility: in mineral and vegetable oils. Not soluble in water.

Use: add to the fatty phase of the cream or mix with other fat-soluble components. Heating is allowed.

Storage: in a dark, cool place in a tightly closed container. Keep away from direct sunlight.

How does emollient work in cosmetics

Sensolene consists of a combination of fatty acids that chemically imitate the composition of the skin's hydrolipid film, ensuring physiological compatibility with it. When added to recipes, it leaves a unique feeling of natural silk on the skin, as it has strong softening properties and gives an immediate moisturizing effect.

Sensolene has excellent sensory characteristics, far superior to silicone emollients in its dermatological properties, makes the skin silky and smooth, and increases the moisturizing and protective properties of recipes for a long time. It is also a solubilizer of fragrances and oils in cosmetics. In addition, this emollient increases the elasticity of the skin and maintains this quality for a long time, restoring the barrier functions of the skin. Sensolene improves the aesthetics of the formulation and is suitable for the manufacture of a wide range of skin care products for men and women of different age groups and for different climatic conditions, and is also widely used in the manufacture of formulas for children's products.

Sensolene performs the following functions

• Strengthens the integrity of the skin barrier
• Improves the flexibility and mechanical properties of the skin
• Due to its molecular composition, Sensolene has greater physiological compatibility with the hydrolipidic film of the skin and further enhances the barrier function
• Quickly and long-term moisturizes the skin. Sensolene is a direct moisturizing component that maintains long-term hydration levels. Its moisturizing properties were measured in comparison with squalene: while skin hydration was prolonged in the presence of squalene by 30 minutes, with Sensolene it was possible to maintain the hydration level for up to 120 minutes after application. This effect of Sensolene can be explained by its broader molecular compatibility with the hydrolipidic layer. Squalene will act as a single component, while Sensolene will work as a multifunctional ingredient
• Natural elasticity restorer. Sensolene improves the flexibility and mechanical properties of the skin, as well as physiological functions, by imitating the molecular composition of the hydrolipidic film of the skin surface. Due to this action, it helps to improve the skin's hydration level, which in turn will lead to an increase in the mechanical properties of the skin. Sensolene physiologically restores the skin's hydration level, promoting better water retention in the epidermis. This increased hydration also increases the flexibility of the fibrillar components contained in the skin (collagen, elastin, glycosaminoglycans and hyaluronic acid). The result is softer skin, with better elasticity and firmness.

Briefly about the cosmetic properties of the emollient

• instantly moisturizes the skin
• increases the time of long-term hydration
• has strong softening properties
• leaves a unique feeling of natural silk on the skin
• highly compatible with the skin
• restores the barrier functions of the skin
• increases the elasticity of the skin
• significantly improves the sensory characteristics of finished cosmetics
• has excellent dermatological properties
• increases the protective properties of formulations
• is also a solubilizer of fragrances and oils in cosmetics.
   

Why you should buy Sensolen for natural cosmetics

• allows you to achieve a high level of viscosity while maintaining an excellent spreadability profile
• has a wider physiological compatibility with the hydrolipidic film and exhibits better barrier function enhancing properties
• physiologically compatible with the hydrolipidic film and provides multifunctional integration into it
• the action of Sensolene lasts for 8 hours after a single application
• biodegradable, so adding it to your cosmetics you care about the environment.
   

What formulas can include emollient

The recommended level of emollient use is 1-3% as an emollient, 3-5% in emulsions to reduce transepidermal water loss and increase skin hydration, elasticity, firmness and smoothness, and 5-10% in foaming bath and shower oils. Sensolen is widely used in the following types of cosmetics:

• face and body creams regardless of skin type
• low-viscosity emulsions (milk, lotions)
• skin moisturizers
• mature skin care products
• children's products
• cosmetics for dry atopic skin
• aftershave products
• sun and after-sun products
• lipsticks and decorative cosmetics.
