Amyris is now selling globally a second renewable ingredient under its Neossance brand. Neossance Hemisqualane is a pure, plant-derived, light emollient with high spreadability and proven performance characteristics.
This ingredient addresses the emollient market with better performance compared to existing products in this large and growing market.
Neossance Hemisqualane is a natural alternative to petroleum-based paraffins and silicone ingredients. This new offering is an innovative solution to address an even larger market than the company’s first emollient, Neossance Squalane, which continues to win market share as one of the world's leading high-end emollients. Neossance emollients offer many high-performance properties that make them ideal ingredients across beauty categories including skin, hair, sun care, makeup and cleansing.
Hemisqualane is an Ecocert-approved natural ingredient and has also received The Natural Seal (NPA) that certifies compliance with the Natural Products Association Standard for Personal Care Products. It is a USDA certified 100% bio-based product.
