INCI: Polyglyceryl-3 Polyricinoleate

Overview

IMWITOR® 600 is the W/O emulsifier for out-of-ordinary skin feel. Safely used for decades in the sweet world of chocolates for its extraordinary power to combine all components in specific textures, this safe ingredient is a must-have from skin care to sun care or even color. From fluid to buttery, with broad compatibility and adaptability with oil or water phases and even pigment wetting, this 100% natural vegan W/O emulsifier will deliver the full flexibility every formulator is looking for! Naturally soft - this is what describes the sensory of milks, lotions, creams or even buttery balms formulated with IMWITOR® 600 best! Emulsion concepts based on this emulsifier offer an easy pick-up, uniform spreading & a non- waxy, non-sticky sensorial profile during application. Softness is the most prominent property of the after-feel – regardless of oil content! In addition, formulas also feel smooth and velvety, non-sticky, non-oily and non-waxy.
