BASF offers cosmetic chemists one of the broadest ingredient portfolios in the personal care industy. For example, the BASF sun care line includes UV protectants such as Univul, Z-Cote and T-Lite. All of them impart broad spectrum sun protection, efficient skin care and prevention against premature skin aging. Looking ahead, BASF is awaiting FDAapproval for Tinosorb M, Tinosorb S and Univul T150, which represents the next generation of sun protection, according to the company.
For color cosmetics formulators, BASF has rolled out three new MultiReflections Soft Sparkle pigments. They are said to be ideal for formulators who want to add subtle iridescent colors to color cosmetics and personal care formulas such as lip care, skin care, makeup and hair styling products.
For hair and skin care formulators, there is new Luvigel Star, a salt-stable, polymeric thickener for skin and hair care products. This polyurethane-based rheology modifier provides high thickening performance over a wide pH range, and better cost performance, according to BASF. Also, on display at Suppliers' Day was Luvigel Advanced, a multifunctional polymeric thickener for hairstyling products.
Finally, BASF Beauty Care Solutions highlighted two plant-based skin care ingredients. Symbiocell is a Cestrum latifolium extract that enables skin cells to react appropriately when under attack. Osmogeline is a red algae extract that protects the skin surface and tissue, combats redness and gives an even complexion.
