Over the past few years, consumer demands and, therefore market trends, have registered a shift towards preservativefree formulations, which are viewed as being healthier and natural but at the same time are able to grant a good stability, good organoleptic characteristics and, over all, a good resistance to microbial contamination.
In addition to the trend for ‘free-from’ products, there is also a growing number of consumers who seek short, simple ingredients lists due to the fact they are considered less ‘artificial’.
Up to now, the topic of ‘preservativefree’ has always been extremely delicate for formulators, since cosmetic formulations are more likely to be contaminated by bacteria and therefore need an efficient protection.
Naticide® from Italian ingredient manufacturer, Sinerga, meets this need with a new concept of multifunctional ingredient, allowing the formulation of safe and preservative-free cosmetics. It is a blend of vegetable extracts formulated according to the IFRA recommendations inside the Sinerga R&D Lab. Its physical form is a clear liquid, colourless to yellow, with a pleasant, light sweet odour with vanilla and almond notes. Thanks to this almond aroma, the use of additional perfumes can be avoided and Naticide (INCI Name: Parfum) could also be the base for a fresh and natural scent.
