New Products Quats . . . .CRODAZOSOFT DBQ Count on Croda for new, unique chemistry! As a 70% active quaternary compound consisting of two Behenyl chains attached to an imidazoline backbone, CRODAZOSOFT DBQ offers exceptional softening properties, superior delivery of lipophilic actives, and prevention of combing damage to the cuticle. Studies available.CRODASORB UV-HPP is a 65% active, EINECS exempt, polyester polyquaternized UV absorber for hair. Studies on both pigmented and gray hair show it is effective in preventing UV-B damage, and in doing so, protects UV-exposed hair from protein degradation and a loss in integrity. Combing properties are improved; hydrophobicity is restored; tensile strength is preserved, as is the hair's natural color. INCROQUAT BEHENYL TMS-50 is a 50% active Behentrimonium Methosulfate quat that offers higher activity and greater flexibility, as well as the well-known detangling and conditioning benefits of this C22 methosulfate quat. As a high-active quat, INCROQUAT BEHENYL TMS-50 gives formulators the option of customizing the quat:fatty alcohol ratio to suit. INCROQUAT BEHENYL TMS-50 is supplied without volatile solvents and has the highest activity possible as a pastille. As a cationic emulsifier, INCROQUAT BEHENYL TMS-50 is safe and gentle enough for leave-on skin care. Proteins . . . . Return to TopHYDROSOLANUM This high quality hydrolyzed vegetable protein has excellent conditioning, moisturizing and film-forming properties, with virtually no color or odor. HYDROSOLANUM is substantive to both hair and skin, and with its low molecular weight of 600, will easily penetrate these substrates. Studies on Skin Elasticity and Recovery and on Hair Moisture Regulation are available. KERAVIS This powerful hair-strengthening complex dramatically improves the strength of damaged hair. A copolymer of vegetable protein and silicone, KERAVIS has a dual action in that it plasticizes the hair by moisturizing from within and lubricates the outer hair surface to protect the cuticle. Combined, these properties help to strengthen the hair and reduce damage caused by chemical treatment or styling practices. Flexabrasion studies show a conditioner with 1% KERAVIS provides three times the strengthening performance of the conditioner alone. Study is available. Botanicals . . .CRODAROM PHYTESSENCE COTTON is a glycolic/aqueous extract of cotton seeds produced by patented microwave extraction. Cotton seeds are rich in proteins, sugar components and Vitamin B and provide conditioning, soothing and moisturizing properties. CRODAROM PHYTESSENCE OLIVE is a glycolic/aqueous extract of olive kernels produced by patented microwave extraction. Active molecule is Gallic Acid. Provides anti-irritant, anti-oxidant, astringent, and anti-inflammatory properties. CRODAROM CHARDONNAY is a water soluble powder obtained from the extraction of the seeds of white Chardonnay grapes. Provides anti aging, firming, and astringent properties. ORAC studies show its superior antioxidant performance to Vitamins C and E. From the Rain Forests of Brazil . . . . Return to TopCRODAMAZON CUPUAÇÚ is the rainforest's answer to cocoa butter. This exotic butter acts as an emollient and has a high capacity for water absorption, offering proven moisturization benefits to the skin. The phytosterols contained within promote film formation and the reduction of TEWL. Phytosterols are known to stimulate the healing process and have been used in the treatment of dermatitis and ulcers. Skin Moisturization study available. CRODAMAZON MARACUJÁ An emollient oil harvested from the seeds of the Passionflower fruit, CRODAMAZON MARACUJÁ is rich in Linoleic Acid (77%), and so, has applications in barrier creams and treatment products. The bioflavonoids in Passion Fruit oil are known to help regulate the level of sebaceous gland activity, making CRODAMAZON MARACUJÁ ideal for oily skin preparations such as wipes, lotions, and cleansers. Sebum Regulation study is available. CRODAMAZON BURITI is a lipid extracted from the fruit pulp of Maurita Flexuosa, considered a “Tree of Life” in the rainforest of Central Brazil. The bright yellow pulp contains a colorful red oil rich in Provitamin A (b-Carotene). CRODAMAZON BURITI acts as an emollient and free radical scavenger, and is known to have healing properties, suggesting the product's use in both hair and skin-care products, as well as in after-sun and baby care products where it helps to sooth irritation. In hair-care, CRODAMAZON BURITI is specifically recommended for products geared to the treatment and repair of damaged hair. Hair Tensile Strength Study is available. And From Sederma . . . . Return to Top EYELISS™ helps reduce puffiness and bags under the eyes. Puffy eyes are due to fluid build-up caused by poor drainage, fragile capillaries, and loss of elasticity. Fluid leaks into surrounding tissues and produces the “bags”. EYELISS targets all three conditions: 1. The dipeptide Valyl-Tryptophane improves drainage. 2. Hesperidin Methyl Chalcone helps reduce capillary fragility. 3. Palmitoyl-Gly-Gin-Pro-Arg helps reduce irritation and skin slackening by increasing skin firmness and elasticity. Claims substantiation available.LIPOCARE™ contains a patented blend of ingredients that synergistically control and reduce the appearance of cellulite - the unsightly pockets of fat that dimple the skin. Bupleurum Chinensis increases the production of lipases, enhancing the breakdown of fat. Coenzyme A converts free fatty acids into energy. In vitro and in vivo studies available. In vivo studies show LIPOCARE reduces “orange-peel skin” by up to 80%. LIPEXEL™ is an oil extracted from the seeds of Luffa cylindrica, a fruit that mimics the skin's fatty acid composition and is more commonly known as the loofah sponge. LIPEXEL counteracts the harsh stripping effects of cleansers by restoring the skin's lipid profile, normal barrier function, and natural hydration. Product has been shown to reduce the drying effects of loose and pressed powders. Efficacy studies available. AC.NET™ consists of a specific blend of components that together target all the causes and symptoms associated with oily, acne-prone skin, greatly reducing the incidence of breakout. AC.NET fights Hyperseborrhea, the excess production of oils, so blemishes are less likely to develop. It inhibits Hyperkeratosis, the excess formation of skin cells, which can clog pores and lead to blackheads, pimples or pustules. The product controls the inflammation that provokes and worsens acne. Multiple studies available. BIRCH SAP is a natural toning, firming and moisturizing ingredient particularly suited for men’s products. Considered a longevity elixir, raw birch sap has been harvested in Korea since the 9th Century. Naturally rich in minerals and trace elements (i.e. zinc, silicone, manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, selenium, copper, etc., plus Vitamins B and C), BIRCH SAP is an ideal source of nutrients essential for healthy skin and hair. Evaluated in an after-shave product, BIRCH SAP was shown to increase skin’s tonicity by as much as 40% (+14% on average), in just 2 weeks. In addition, 90% of the men reported an immediate and long term moisturizing effect. Efficacy studies are available. CALMOSENSINE™ is a new product that promotes Well-Being by reducing the perception of unpleasant sensations. It modulates the perception of temperature, chemical aggressions, and tactile sensation. By putting the skin at ease, it creates a more comfortable, and relaxed sensation. CALMOSENSINE contains the first cosmetic active ever shown to reduce the emotional response to tactile aggression, as tested using a Lie Detector to measure the subliminal response to unpleasant sensations. CALMOSENSINE is recommended for body and facial products, hand creams, shave products, after sun care products, and especially for sensitive skin products. Efficacy studies available.
