Actives And Delivery Systems

BioSyn-Bisabolol is a powerful anti-oxidant and anti-inflamatory natural active, produced using sustainable biotechnology method, with high active content (>99%).
AC-HPR is a new generation, bio-available form of Vitamin A that is easy to formulate in different types of systems. It is non-irritatimg and highly stable. Available in powder form (AC-HPR) or in a 10% active solution in an oil (AC-HPR-S10)
INULIN-SC is a natural, multi-functional active, with a moisturizing effect on the skin and texture enhancer in formulations.

Hyaluronic acid is a natural polysaccharide, widely distributed throughout connective, epithelial, and neural tissues. It is a major component of skin, where it is involved in moisturization and tissue repair.
Hyaoligo® - Low MW, high purity Sodium Hyaluronate, obtained via an enzymatic process. It promotes moisturization deep in the skin and help cell repair.
Hyacharming® - Sodium Hyaluronate dispersed in oil at 30% active. It brings natural moisturization to anhydrous formulas
HA Pro® - Acetylated Sodium Hyaluronat, a super moisturizer and free radical scavenger
HA-Zn - Zinc Hyaluronate. In addition to moisturization, it is a 5alpha-reductase and helps with skin oil control
Treme-HA® - Plant derived, high MW polysaccharide, highly efficient moisturizer and free radical scavenger

Liposomal formulations made with Phytopresome™ enhance the penetration of active in the epidermis, increase Stratum Corneum retention, promote sustained release and long-lasting effect and help formulate lipid-soluble actives in water-based formulas.
Phytopresome™ are liposome precursors composed of lecithin, phytosterol and an active, supplied as powder: the liposomal suspension needs to be made before the product is formulated.

Glycospheres are supramolecular systems, which consists of a stable inner core, made of starch, and lipids layers (fatty acid esters and polar lipids), organized around this core. The small size (200 nanometers) of this spherical system allows a controlled penetration in the first layers of the epidermis.
Both hydrophilic and lipopilic active ingredients can be entrapped in the Glycospheres. Experiments on ascorbic acid, free-radical scavengers, enzymes or antibacterial agents have shown that entrapped actives are more stable than the non-entrapped form, and remain active after entrapment and delivery.

Softspheres™ are large spherical (1.00 to 2.80 mm) particles used for the decoration of formulas and the delivery of lipophilic and / or anionic active ingredients. Made of agar-agar, they are soft enough for being crushed on the skin without leaving any residue. To this agar matrix a copolymer, cationic and amphiphilic is added, which is able to trap active material (natural oils, proteins, vitamins, fragrances, …) and colorants within the sphere.
