Berg + Schmidt will present its expertise in the field of oleochemistry at In-cosmetics 2020 in Barcelona (Booth No. Q80). Above all, the oil experts place great emphasis on naturalness: the new B+S product BergaCare FG Olive is a natural alternative to silicones in skin and hair care formulations.
Other new products in the range include “BergaCare SmartLipids Ceramides,” a lipid-encapsulated blend of skin-identical ingredients that strengthen the natural skin barrier. In this technical talk on GlyAcid, Dr. Sabilla Digel will present the latest findings on the beneficial effects of glycolic acid in hair care.
Cosmetic manufacturers specifically targeting environmentally friendly consumers are seeking alternatives to synthetic ingredients. To meet the growing demand for natural ingredients, Berg+Schmidt will present BergaCare FG Olive at Cosmetics 2020 as an alternative to the use of D4 and D5 silicones. The product is a mixture of ester oils and unsaponifiables obtained from olives. The feel is similar to cyclopentasiloxane, and BergaCare FG Olive can be used as an emollient in skin and hair care formulations. The colorless, odorless liquid contains no preservatives or other additives and is biodegradable. BergaCare FG Olive can be processed into formulas in the cold state and is compatible with conventional cosmetic ingredients. Additionally, BergaCare FG Olive provides consumers with the same smooth and silky skin feel they experienced previously with silicones.
