The company devoted to the sector of the distribution of prime matter chemists in Spain has presented the dossier of its preservatives, humectants, and solvent. They have decided to begin 2023, centering in the products that compose to the following categories:
-
Preservative boosters: these are necessary in cosmetic products to prevent the growth of bacteria, molds, and yeast such as lipsticks for example. This allows safe usage for the customer and improves the longevity of the product.
-
Humectantes: used in aqueous systems or in emulsions to retain water to avoid the drying of the product and are capable of retaining fragrances on the skin and preventing the loss of perfume in products.
