USE CASE • Making waxes easier to incorporate into makeup formulations

Waxes are essential ingredients in solid makeup formulations (lipsticks, balms and sticks), contributing to the product’s structure, stability and application properties.

FLOWease™ embeds pigments, active ingredients and other functional ingredients within a lipid matrix before they are transformed through prilling* into solid, homogeneous microbeads. This format facilitates handling, dosing and incorporation during production, and still allows the ingredient to be tailored to the final application.

 * Prilling: a process in which fine droplets are formed from a molten material containing the active ingredient, then cooled until crystallization to obtain particles with a controlled size (50–1,000 µm).
