A fabulous excipient

Jean de la Fontaine wrote in his Fables (IV, 15) that "Deux s?retés valent mieux qu'une et le trop en cela ne fut jamais perdu" (Two guarantees are better than one and the surplus of these is never lost) .

Among the products of Vevy Europe, a research and production company of specialized ingredients for topical use, Cetacene? is in charge of providing the finished product with remarkable sensory characteristics and great stability.

However, Cetacene? offers much more: it is indeed a multifunctional unconventional wax, with a melting point around 50°C, which can be used as a homogenizer, plasticizer, dispersant and foam controller.

Cetacene? confers stability to preparations without modifying their viscosity and in particular provides excellent resistance to sudden changes in temperature and mechanical stress (longer shelf life, non-deformability in hot climates, non-fragility in cold climates, no cracks for cast products).

It gives emolliency and conditioning effect, providing the products a particular soft and velvety touch, similar to some silicones.

Furthermore, it optimizes the release of actives being able to increase the transdermal delivery.

Its use is recommended in emulsions, anhydrous sticks and gels for skincare and hair care, as well as in foaming preparations.

Cetacene? is an extremely safe ingredient: it is very well tolerated by the skin and mucous membranes, so it can be used in both cosmetic and dermatological preparations.
