Gransil EP-9 is ideal for anti-aging products.
July 8, 2011

More and more women are looking for the immediate results of Botox without the necessary doctor visits and medical procedures. Market products like wrinkle erasers that offer similar performance without the hassle related expense are gaining popularity due to their immediate effectiveness and value. These types of products generally contain silicone materials (elastomers and powders) due to their versatile functionality and skin safety. Touted as “The Miracle Worker for a Younger Appearance,” Gransil EP-9 (INCI: Polysilicone-11, Water, Laureth-12, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin) is a 60% emulsion of spherical elastomer powder. A controlled particle size of 2-4 microns offers enhanced aesthetics and improved formula dispersibility. Gransil EP-9 technology offers a number of advantages over other materials including cost performance and ease of use. Ideally suited for “instant” soft focus effect formulations, Gransil EP-9’s performance comes from its concentrated elastomer content (60% Polysilicone-11). This concentration provides an intensified wrinkle filling and line blurring function to visibly diminish lines and wrinkles—in addition soft cushion and silky sensory feel is experienced on application. Gransil EP-9 can be combined with active ingredients to offer both immediate and long term benefits in formulations. Ideal formulations include those designed to mask crow’s feet and under eye blemishes. Gransil EP-9 delivers an excellent non-tacky, non-oily, smooth feel to all applications areas. The end result leaves a powdery after feel on the applied area. The elastomer network also offers sebum absorption and control to soak up excess oils on the skin and T-Zone areas. Gransil EP-9 can be formulated into oil-in-water emulsions, water-in-oil emulsions, dispersions, and other formulating systems. For water-based formulations Gransil EP-9 can simply be combined with the aqueous phase to create effective products. Applications areas include skin care, color cosmetics, body care and sun care. Gransil EP-9 has a globally approved regulatory status along with a non-irritating, non-sensitizing safety profile. More info: www.grantinc.com
