The Phytomulse™ Product Line allows customization and consistency within a product line, while capitalizing on natural and sustainable trends in the personal care and cosmetic market. These complete emulsifying systems also offer cost savings to the formulating chemist. Typically, an emulsifying system would require the use of additional stabilizing orgelling agents, however, neither are required when using a product from the Phytomulse™ Product Line. This will, of course, allow chemists to develop economic formulations while also reducing production time, freeing warehouse space, and easing raw material management- Efficiency at its best! The emulsifier itself is a blend of cetearyl alcohol and glyceryl stearate which works in conjunction with the properties specific to the feedstock selected. Both the cetearyl alcohol and glyceryl stearate are sourced from sustainably harvested and manufactured coconut palm oil. In addition to their emulsifying properties, these components also provide functional benefits when added to a formula. Cetearyl alcohol increases opacity, viscosity, and emolliency. Glyceryl stearate enhances hydration by improving the skin’s barrier function, with the added bonus of improving product stability by increasing freeze resistance and reducing water evaporation. Phytomulse® Amaranth Amaranthus is prized in the skin care industry for its unusually high squalene content. Squalene provides moisturizing, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties which are known to contribute to healthy, youthful looking skin. These properties are likely attributable to the plant’s ability to withstand drought and thrive on the poor soil and arid land of Central and South America. Amaranthus was a staple crop of the ancient Aztec and Inca civilizations. Often referred to as summer poinsettia, it consists of nearly 60 plant species that are categorized as either grain or green leaf vegetable types. Amaranthus consists of approximately 5% to 9% oil which is generally higher than other cereals. The lipid fraction of amaranthus is roughly 60% unsaturated fats, with linoleic acid as the predominant fatty acid- a composition similar to that of other cereals. However, squalene represents 5% to 8% of Amaranthus’ total lipid fraction which sets the plant apart from the rest. Dr. Tsujimoto of Japan was the first to research the health benefits of Squalene (C30H50), an unsaturated hydrocarbon. He noticed that sharks do not develop cancer or tumors, and eventually attributed this to the squalene produced in sharks’ livers. Squalene has been extensively researched and was found to play a key role in maintaining health because of its ability to carry oxygen. Squalane (C30H62) is produced from the catalytic hydrogenation of squalene. Our bodies naturally produce squalane and squalene, and they are major components of human sebum. As part of our sebum, they help retain moisture within the skin and provide a protective antibacterial/antifungicidal coating. Incorporate Amaranthus into formulations for anti-aging benefits and natural emolliency that creates supple skin without an unpleasant, greasy feel. SCIENCE The Phytomulse™ Product Line is a blend of non-ionic surfactants intended to simplify and differentiate emulsionformulation. Phytomulse™ is especially useful in stabilizing emulsion formulations that have a high oil phase. Formulas that contain 30% oil or more are very problematic to stabilize in an O/W emulsions. The Phytomulse™ Product Line is able to efficiently and effectively stabilize this phase due to the combination of key surfactants and the formation of unique liquid crystals. Any Phytomulse™ product should be added to the oily phase of an emulsion and heated to
