April 2010
That is the end of the double signature: "Sensient - LCW". The company is displaying its new ambition for the global cosmetic and personal care market. As one of the world’s leading manufacturer and marketer of high purity colours and cosmetic ingredients, Sensient Cosmetic Technologies offers many new products and concepts focused on their main application areas: make-up, skin care and hair care.

Innovations presented during in-cosmetics 2010 are the fair balance between sustainable products and advanced innovative cosmetic performances.

Matlake TMO is part of the new generation of nanofine-free transparent titanium dioxide with high UV absorbance. In sunscreen products, it allows formulators to develop the appropriate SPF/PFA ratio without nanoparticles. Matlake TMO is available coated with a natural surface treatment HLC to improve dispersibility in W/Si emulsions.

Natpure Feel-M is a natural multifunctional silicone-like ingredient. Its optimised composition provides superior benefits in a wide range of applications including make-up, skin care, sun care and hair care.

As a silicone alternative, Natpure Feel-M delivers hydrophobic film-forming properties with waterproof performances on the skin and hair. This new product is an emollient providing a smooth feel in cosmetic products while acting as a conditioner in hair care products.

Natpure Feel-M is the basis for the Natural Hair Coloration Concept created by Sensient Cosmetic Technologies. It complies with ECOCERT standard.

Combining its expertise on natural pearls and surface treatment, Sensient Cosmetic Technologies launches the Covapearl HLC line, natural pearls coated with hydrogenated lecithin, a natural surface treatment. They are natural hydrophobic pearls with a smooth and lubricious feel. Twelve shades are available to explore natural make-up, natural skin illuminator and natural hair make-up. Covapearl HLC products comply with ECOCERT standard.

The company's technical expertise and know how allow formulators to go rapidly in their developments through innovative application formulas.

Innovation is our Sixth Sense !

Until antibiotics conquered the world, the only possible method for curing gangrene was maggot therapy, except for amputation of the extremities. Maggots were applied to the wound and would eat the necrotic tissue, including the organisms that were responsible for that.

Skin defences boosted by grapefruit extract
Humans are constantly exposed to harmful foreign chemicals and materials from exogenous and endogenous sources. As a result, defence mechanisms have evolved to protect against toxin overload.1 Cells are under constant threat from metabolic waste products and xenobiotics. The formation of phase I and phase II metabolism mobilises and excretes these mainly lipophilic toxins.
