Phytomulse Chlorella Emulsifier

Phytomulse Chlorella Emulsifier is a natural emulsifier derived from chlorella, a type of green algae. It is used in the formulation of cosmetic products as a stabilizer and thickener. This ingredient is rich in proteins, vitamins, and minerals, making it an excellent source of nutrients for the skin. Phytomulse Chlorella Emulsifier is also known for its ability to bind to heavy metals and toxins, making it a great detoxifying agent for the skin. Its emulsifying properties make it able to mix oil and water-based ingredients in a stable and smooth manner, resulting in a luxurious texture and improved skin feel. It is a sustainable and eco-friendly option for natural cosmetic formulations.

Phytomulse™ Chlorella

O/W Emulsions

Benefits of using Phytomulse™ Products:

• High Performance Emulsifiers

• Improves Stability

• High Compatibility

• Aesthetic Modifier

• Impressive Sensorial Profile

Phytomulse™, a line of high-performance emulsifiers developed that will allow you to design your own distinct emulsifying system from a selection of feedstock: Almond, Amaranth, Chlorella, and Coconut. The Phytomulse™ Product Line allows customization and consistency within a product line, while capitalizing on natural and sustainable trends in the personal care and cosmetic market. These complete emulsifying systems also offer cost savings to the formulating chemist.

Typically, an emulsifying system would require the use of additional stabilizing orgelling agents, however, neither are required when using a product from the Phytomulse™ Product Line. This will, of course, allow chemists to develop economic formulations while also reducing production time, freeing warehouse space, and easing raw material management- Efficiency at its best!

The emulsifier itself is a blend of cetearyl alcohol and glyceryl stearate which works in conjunction with the properties specific to the feedstock selected. Both the cetearyl alcohol and glyceryl stearate are sourced from sustainably harvested and manufactured coconut palm oil. In addition to their emulsifying properties, these components also provide functional benefits when added to a formula. Cetearyl alcohol increases opacity, viscosity, and emolliency. Glyceryl stearate enhances hydration by improving the skin’s barrier function, with the added bonus of improving product stability by increasing freeze resistance and reducing water evaporation.

Phytomulse™ Chlorella

Chlorella vulgaris is a type of freshwater algae rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants including B vitamins, iron, carotenoids, and vitamin C. Chlorella is also packed with amino acids, which, as we know, are the building blocks of collagen. In Japan, herbal remedies to treat many different illnesses include Chlorella vulgaris because it contains the highest chlorophyll concentration of any plant. Chlorophyll contains wound healing and tissue regeneration properties and acts like a natural antibiotic. Chlorella can be useful in treating stretch marks or sun damaged skin due to its abundant amino acid content. Amino acids have the ability to restructure and smooth the skin’s surface. This skin conditioning and protecting agent is believed to have powerful anti-aging benefits, mainly due to the fact that it is a rich source of carotenoids- a family of nutrients that, when ingested, deposit into the skin and protect it from the harmful effects of UV rays. In addition, Chlorella vulgaris is an excellent source of methyl-cobolamine, the most absorbable form of vitamin B12- useful in maintaining healthy, youthful-looking skin

SCIENCE

The Phytomulse™ Product Line is a blend of non-ionic surfactants intended to simplify and differentiate emulsionformulation. Phytomulse™ is especially useful in stabilizing emulsion formulations that have a high oil phase. Formulas that contain 30% oil or more are very problematic to stabilize in an O/W emulsions. The Phytomulse™ Product Line is able to efficiently and effectively stabilize this phase due to the combination of key surfactants and the formation of unique liquid crystals. Any Phytomulse™ product should be added to the oily phase of an emulsion and heated to <80C. These emulsifying systems are compatible with most gums and polymers, which may be used to adjust the texture of the formula itself.

BENEFITS

The Phytomulse™ Product Line is a complete emulsifying system that provides an opportunity for customization and consistency within your line of products. The Phytomulse™ emulsifying system is compatible with a wide range of emollients including: natural oils, silicones, esters, and hydrocarbons. Furthermore, in formulations the Phytomulse™ line creates an aesthetically pleasant, full-bodied texture, satiny-smooth rub in, and sinuous end feel.

EFFICACY

Emulsions can be formulated over a wide range of viscosities which have rheologies from flowing fluids to thick, viscous creams. The Phytomuse™ Product Line can be used with polymeric, thickening agents, natural gums and other viscosity modifiers and stabilizers. When an emulsion incorporates the Phytomulse™ Product Line it produces an immediate improvement in the sensorial aesthetics of a product and increases spreadability from initial contact through complete absorption. The response is an elegant, soft sensation that persists for hours after applying the product. These emulsions are also very fine in texture, amplifying their ability to provide a luxurious, shiny appearance on the skin.
