Lustrous Hair Color Cream, 5.7 Chocolate Brown

Lubrizol Advanced Materials Asia Pacific Limited

Hair color is forecasted to remain an attractive growth segment in Personal Care. Thanks to Chromapol™* 5 polymer, this hair coloring cream is free from any fatty alcohol based emulsifiers which enhances formulation flexibility and product aesthetics. Chromapol™* 5 polymer allows for the semi-cold process creation of unique product forms such as glossy and no drip creams offering pleasing hair sensory. Chromapol™* 5 polymer stabilizes this PPD (p-Phenylenediamine)-based formula. This formulation is an excellent color base to mix with the activator cream.
