"We're delighted that our product has been so well received by Asian customers, proving that products for sensitive skin are not just fashionable, but a real need for consumers. Environmental changes and parents' desire to offer their children soothing products are prompting formulators to seek out innovative, multi-functional ingredients. Emulium Dermolea MB enables the development of a wide range of cosmetic applications suitable for all skin types and climates "said Angelito Delos Reyes, Managing Director of the Gattefossé Asia Pacific subsidiary.
Launched in April 2023 at in-cosmetics global, Emulium Dermolea MB was awarded a gold medal at in-cosmetics Asia in the functional ingredient category of the innovation zone, after winning best functional ingredient at in-cosmetics Korea, and silver at in-cosmetics Latin America.
Emulium Dermolea MB is an O/W emulsifier of plant origin developed by Gattefossé, a specialist in natural cosmetic ingredients for the beauty and health industries.
According to Gattefossé, Emulium Dermolea MB reduces skin stress and provides lasting relief thanks to its unique lipidic composition rich in sterols and triterpenes. Highly moisturizing and protective, it reinforces the skin's barrier function. Used at a rate of 4 %, this multifunctional ingredient is suitable for all skin types and climates.
To create Emulium Dermolea MB, Gattefossé turned to candelilla wax, rice bran wax and jojoba wax, selected for their complementary properties and functionalized with polyglycerol-3.
