PHYTOCARE-PG
A new concept of cosmetic ingredient developed by Naturalis to formulate in complete harmony with the nature.
PHYTOCARE-PG is an O/W emulsified completely of vegetal origin that can act also as an active ingredient with moisturizing and soothing properties at the same time.
PHYTOCARE-PG is free of ethylene oxide or any other chemical solvent offering excellent dermo-compatibility and total biodegradability.
PHYTOCARE-PG combines the exceptional properties of almond oil with pomenagrate oil, offering protective and moisturizing effects on skin.
PHYTOCARE-PG forms “gel network structures” (α-gel phase) able to mimic the multi-lamellar hydro-lipid structure of the stratum corneum, strengthening the barrier function of the skin and protecting from excessive transepidermal water loss.
Properties of Phytocare-PG:
- Forms emulsions with high stability for long period of storage in a wide range of temperature
- Improve moisturizing effect on skin
- Reduce preservatives in formula
- Enhances the absorption of active ingredients through the skin
- Improves protection from UV rays thanks to a better dispersion of the physical and chemical sunscreens
- Excellent compatibility with any oil phase, physical sunscreens, pigments and any kind of active ingredients
Phytocare-PG is suitable for:
- All cosmetic classes: skin care, sun care, make-up and hair care
- All skin types: oily, dry, sensitive, baby, young and mature skin
- Complete range of viscosity: sprays, lotions, milks, fluid emulsions, creams
- Full range of texture: light, soft, smooth, rich and very rich
