GENENCARE® OSMS BA (INCI: betaine) is a natural betaine extracted from sugar beets. Sustainably sourced from upcycled sugar production side stream, this highly purified betaine is a moisturizer and osmoprotectant which helps protect proteins and regulate cell water balance by increasing organic osmolytes transporters. Water soluble, it is easy to formulate in all types of applications such as skin care, hair care, toiletries, and make-up.
GENENCARE® OSMS MI (INCI: inositol) is an energizing osmolyte sustainably sourced from upcycled sugar production side stream. As an isomer of glucose and osmoprotectant, inositol is a natural source of energy for cells and skin. It helps to stimulate keratinocytes’ and fibroblasts’ metabolism, and improve skin oxygenation and elasticity to help fight back the signs of aging. Water soluble, it is easy to formulate in all types of applications such as skin care, hair care, toiletries and make-up.
GENENCARE® OSMS CC (INCI: betaine, tricalcium phosphate) is a micronized powder form of natural betaine, specially developed to be used in anhydrous (waterless) formulations such as solid cosmetics, dry shampoo, powder blends and make up. It helps protect cells from environmental stress and specifically against dehydration. It also helps to strengthen the skin barrier and provides long term skin moisturization and sensory benefits.
GENENCARE® XL (INCI: xylitol) is a moisturizer that supports microbiome profile of the skin. Extracted from upcycled wood production side stream, this highly purified, sustainably sourced bioactive is easily dissolved in water and suitable for applications in skin care, hair care, hygiene products and solid cosmetics.
AURIST™ GHI (INCI: Cyamopsis Tetragonoloba (Guar) Gum) is a natural rheology modifier extracted from the endosperm of the guar plant. It has broad compatibilities and unique sensory profile suitable for all applications. AURIST™ GHI allows you to formulate in a wide range of pH, in combination with cationic ingredients and cold-process formulations. It is the ideal thickener for formulas with sustainability claims. Furthermore, AURIST™ GHI shows excellent synergies with other hydrocolloids i.e. xanthan gum to deliver high-viscosity solutions even at low concentration.
AURIST™ AGC (INCI: Water (and) Alpha-Glucan Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride (and) Propylene Glycol) is an award-winning water-soluble, biodegradable cationic conditioning biopolymer that delivers conditioning benefits on hair, improving both wet and dry combability. Developed using IFF’s Designed Enzymatic Biopolymers (DEB) technology, AURIST™ AGC is a new-to-the-world polysaccharide derived from the enzymatic polymerization of glucose from responsibly sourced natural sugars.
IFF Showcases Cutting-Edge Biotechnology Capabilities with New-to-the-World Personal Care Ingredient
AURIST™ AGC is the first personal care ingredient enabled by IFF’s proprietary Designed Enzymatic Biopolymers (DEB) technology, which uses advanced biotechnology to create a new-to-the-world class of biobased polysaccharides with unique structures and product features.
Quartz: The difference is clear
Today’s haircare formulations go beyond pure cleansing of the hair. Consumers expect additional benefits such as conditioning, smoothing of the hair surface, and improved combability. At the same time, there is increased regulatory and consumer pressure to replace many hair conditioning polymers with sustainable biodegradable alternatives.
Quartz is our new formulation collection focused on clear and natural haircare formulations featuring AURIST™ AGC, a novel, readily biodegradable cationic hair conditioning biopolymer for improved combability.
