Olivem® 2020: exceptional cold process emulsifier performance

Hallstar’s newest natural formulation allows for time- and energy-saving cold blending while providing a host of other benefits.

Olivem® 2020 is a naturally-derived cold process emulsifier offering excellent performance, natural dermollient functionality and superior sensoriality compared with other cold process emulsifiers. It is ideal for a range of applications including face, eye and body care, sun care, baby care, makeup, shaving, wet wipes, hand/nail care and hair care.

Drawing from Hallstar’s deep expertise in olive oil chemistry, Olivem® 2020 has a unique composition of fatty acids chemically similar to the lipidic composition of the skin and the ability to generate a liquid crystals structure. These biomimetic properties have been clinically proven to soothe and restore skin. Thanks to the fatty acids from olive oil, Olivem® 2020 is a functional ingredient which gives a superior skin benefit when compared to market alternatives with a non-biomimetic oil phase.

Olivem® 2020 can emulsify very different types of oil, from apolar hydrocarbons to silicones, esters, natural oils and triglycerides to polar
esters. It can also emulsify up to 30% of the oil phase with only 2% of the ingredient to create rich and nourishing textures. Olivem® 2020 can be added in any phase and at any time in the formulation development process. 

Combined with energy efficient ingredients, Olivem® 2020 allows preparation of formulations without the added heat or high shear mixing required when blending oil and water. In addition to being environmentally friendly, 60% of the product is composed from naturally-derived ingredients (ISO 16128).

Olivem® 2020 is the latest addition to the Olivem® line of ingredients. Each is designed by combining the biocompatibility properties of natural olive chemistry and our technical expertise to deliver superior benefits to formulations.
