Concept formulations engage senses

New concept formulations from Dow Corning, in alliance with Lipo Chemicals Inc., feature microencapsulation technology that combines the proven benefits of silicone with customised release to create distinctive formulations that engage the senses.

“By encapsulating a wide range of ingredients inside a protective ‘shell’, formulators can create unique, consumer-pleasing products that not only feel luxurious, but also have enticing fragrances and are visually distinctive,” said Todd Ostergaard, senior industry specialist, Dow Corning Beauty and Personal Care Products.

Combining microencapsulation with the benefits of silicone, formulators can create visual appeal, protect unstable cosmetic actives, sustain or customise release, and combine previously incompatible ingredients in one formulation.

The prototype formulations in the “Engage Your Senses” formulation include:

  • Soft Vanilla Leave-in Conditioner: Novel hair conditioner with a vanilla fragrance and splashes of temporary colour.
  • Peach Smoothie Body Scrub: Exfoliating body scrub infused with natural ingredients to rejuvenate and protect.
