SENSOCEL®+ hydrophobic cellulose - For a strong performance
SENSOCEL®+ is a range of innovative hydrophobic celluloses. SENSOCEL®+ powders are the silver winners of the in-cosmetics global innovation zone functional ingredients award 2022. SENSOCEL®+ powders are ultra-fine hydrophobic cellulose powders that create an extraordinary soft-focus effect while imitating the sensory profile and texture of synthetic powders like PMMA and nylon. SENSOCEL®+ fibres are the modern eyelash extenders with a low impact on viscosity – perfectly suitable for highly viscous formulas. SENSOCEL®+ hydrophobic celluloses combine functionality and performance and stand out with a natural origin at 100 % biodegradability (according ISO 14851).
Why use microplastic powders, when it is also possible to formulate “green”?
Innovation: SENSOCEL®+ hydrophobic cellulose – natural ingredients for sophisticated formulations
- eco-friendly and sustainable alternative to synthetic powders
- plant based imitation of the character of PMMA and nylon
- light textures and an exclusive skin feel in O/W and W/O
- modern lash extender for the ultimate natural looksoft-focus agent for an even teint
- matte effect & excellent sensory profile in colour cosmetics
- green alternative to synthetic fibres in mascara
- natural skin feel enhancer – very soft & velvet skin feel
SENSOCEL®+ hydrophobic cellulose is a novelty under the well-known sensory additives and can be used in almost every cosmetic product. SENSOCEL®+ hydrophobic cellulose creates an ultra-smooth, powdery-soft skin feel and leads to pleasantly light textures without significant increase in viscosity. The micro-fine powders enable a strong soft-focus effect for modern anti-aging care.
Technological properties of SENSOCEL®+
- insoluble and chemically inert
- highly pure (< 100 CFU/ g), white, odourless
- easy dispersible
- shear-stable
