New benefits discovered for diutan gum

Lubrizol Life Science - Beauty (LLS Beauty) has revealed new benefits of Kelco-Care diutan gum for skin care, sun care and colour cosmetics formulations.

 “Our team of researchers and scientists continue to look for new ways to enhance our nature-based ingredients to meet sustainability goals and consumer expectations,” said Maxime Fougere, global marketing manager, LLS Beauty.

“We’re excited to have found new benefits for Kelco-Care diutan gum that meet these needs.” Key skin care benefits include:

• Immediate moisturising effect that lasts all day long making it a truly multifunctional ingredient for skin care formulations

• Excellent stability at high temperature, maintaining the viscosity of sunscreens during the summer season

• Strong pigment suspension capabilities to meet the growing demand for natural-derived makeup

Kelco-Care diutan gum, which entered the market last year, is a microbial polysaccharide produced by fermentation and is an ideal stabilizer in skin care, sun care and colour cosmetics formulations.
