OliveM 1000

OliveM® 1000, a COSMOS-validated, PEG-free self-emulsifying ingredient, revolutionizes skincare and haircare formulations with its biomimetic properties and multifunctional benefits. The wax emulsifier is a complex combination of fatty acids that mimic the lipidic composition of the skin and can generate liquid crystal structures that resemble the organization of the stratum corneum. OliveM 1000 is available in white to ivory waxy flakes and is oil-soluble.

As an ingredient, Olivem® 1000 ensures deep moisturization without leaving a soapy effect, offering exceptional spreadability and compatibility with a wide pH range of 3-12. Its effectiveness extends to hair care, improving wet combability and serving as a versatile base for conditioners.

Key Features of OliveM 1000:

• Microbiome-Friendly: Proven to preserve skin’s microbiota composition and biodiversity.
• Applications: Suitable for skincare and hair care, enhancing moisturization and wet combability.
• Wide pH Compatibility: Effective in formulations with a pH range of 3-12, including those containing dihydroxyacetone and alpha-hydroxy acids.
• Use Directions: The recommended use level for Olivem® 1000 is 3 – 5% in o/w emulsions as the sole emulsifier, and 0.5 – 2% as a co-emulsifier.
