Blending science with creativity is an art. At Innospec we call it scientivity. With our range of high quality personal care ingredients, you can improve processes and formulations to invigorate your products and maximize consumer appeal.

Whether you want to excite consumers with new hair care products or skin cleansers, improve performance in sunscreens or antiperspirants, or develop environmentally-friendly solutions, we have the technologies and expertise you need.

Our researchers and formulation scientists are continually developing new formulations to showcase our products and inspire formulators around the world. We’ve chosen a few of our favorites to include in this booklet. Each one demonstrates how our ingredients can be used to create end products with particular performance benefits.

Luscious lather sulfate-free bodywash - AC136

This sulfate-free bodywash combines Iselux® and Pureact WS Conc. to produce dense creamy lather. Activsoft C-17 imparts a soft, elegant feel to the skin and enhances foam quality with Activsoft S and Aminol® CM flakes thickening the formulation and stabilizing the foam. Finsolv® TN acts as a solubilizer to gently remove soils from the skin and provides conditioning.

Shiny locks intensive conditioner - H0042

Condicare SD provides intensive conditioning in this five minute treatment mask. Hair is left feeling soft and silky with good shine and manageability.

Silk touch day cream - S0110

This feather-light moisturizer features Activemol EH-25, which provides great emolliency and skin-feel without any oiliness. A mineral oil free formulation, it benefits from added vitamins and also uses Natrlquest® E30, Innospec’s biodegradable chelating agent.

Clearly kind foaming hand wash - AC011b

Iselux® gives a long-lasting luxurious foam to this clear cleansing wash. Finsolv® SLB-201 and Finsolv® EMG-20 ensure a soft moisturized after-feel on the skin. The formulation is also ideal for a mild and gentle face wash.

Golden goddess moisturizer - S0087

This light, readily absorbed moisturizer leaves a subtle golden sheen on the skin. It contains Finsolv® TN which provides emolliency and removes any oiliness associated with using other oils. The formulation is thickened with Rhesperse RM100.

Fabulous foaming sulfate-free shampoo - AC042

Finsolv® SLB-201 and Finsolv® EMG-20 provide conditioning in this thick and creamy shampoo. Pureact WS Conc. and Pureact I-78C create excellent flash-foam which rinses easily to leave hair feeling soft and clean.

Light as a feather sunscreen spray - AC069

This sunscreen spray uses Finsolv® TPP and Finsolv® EB as the solubilizers for the organic sunscreen agents. Finsolv® TPP offers enhanced solubilization versus Finsolv® TN so only a small amount is required. Finsolv® EB helps to achieve a totally non-greasy formulation that is easily applied and absorbed.

Luscious lather sulfate-free bodywash AC136A mild, sulfate-free cleansing bodywash which demonstrates the ability of Iselux® to create structured systems delivering high oil content while retaining excellent foaming properties.
