IFF-Lucas Meyer Cosmetics (IFF-LMC) has expanded and strengthened its strategic portfolio with the acquisition of three personal care ingredients and related intellectual property from Kemin Industries. The acquisition expands IFF-LMC’s product portfolio and related offerings to its customers, particularly to those focused on the environment and sustainability.
The acquired products (and associated IP) include:
• Lysofix, an easy-to-use and cold-process lysophospholipid emulsifier extracted from a non-GMO soybean source that enhances formulas by evenly dispersing sunscreen and makeup pigments, provides immediate hydration and support collagen and elastin production while imparting a luxurious texture to the skin;
• XFoliPearl, which provides a gentle and efficient exfoliation and is an eco-friendly and efficient alternative to plastic beads; and
• MicroCurb, a broad-spectrum preservative from standardized oregano extract.
“Aligned with IFF and IFF-LMC’s commitment to sustainability and natural product offerings, I am thrilled to announce the addition of these key, responsibly sourced ingredients to our growing and increasingly diverse portfolio,” said Antonio Lara, president – CEO, IFF-Lucas Meyer Cosmetics. “Consumers are more aware than ever of the impact their choices have on the environment, so including these compelling active and functional products in our line is a win for our customers, consumers, and the planet.”
