SHE 202
Types of emulsifiers in cosmetics are divided into two categories: water in oil W/O and oil in water O/W. In water-in-oil emulsions, the oil surrounds the water and touches the skin first. The amount of fat depends on its formula. In oil-in-water emulsions, the water surrounds the oil. This method creates creams and lotions that feel moist and less greasy. There is very little oily residue when absorbed into the skin
Emulsifiers in cosmetics stabilize the emulsion by increasing its kinetic stability. Emulsifiers are soluble in both oil and water and do this by absorbing one end of the molecule into water (hydrophilic) and absorbing the other end into fats/oils (lipophilic).
A variety of cosmetic emulsifiers and choosing the right one means finding a molecule with roughly equal absorption of water and oil in your particular formula. This means finding an emulsifier with any of the following:
Positively charged (cationic) – best used with slightly acidic or neutral mixtures
Negative charge (anionic) - best used with alkaline mixtures
Uncharged (non-ionic) – usually used alone or with a charged emulsifier to increase stability
A widely used type of personal care formulation are emulsions found in skin care, sun care, body care, and color cosmetics. Emulsifiers are the most important ingredients to ensure stable emulsions
Beyond this basic need, emulsifiers have a significant effect on the skin depending on their composition and formulation. By changing the emulsifier, the formulator can adjust the characteristics such as texture, appearance, selection and distribution of the emulsion. All of these features specifically affect the initial feel of the skin. By designing three formulas as cosmetic emulsifiers based on the lipophilic-hydrophilic-balance (HLB) index, Shuka Shimi Spadana Company has been able to provide a suitable texture and appearance for your products.
