Environmental impact alert: increasing restrictions on the use of silicones in cosmetics.

News May 3, 2024

How can we improve formulas sensorial without using silicones?

When we seek to improve cosmetic formulas sensorial, few natural ingredients can match the feel of silicones, which are widely used as they are very versatile. However, because they are synthetic materials, some silicones can significantly impact the environment and face increasing restrictions on their use.

Decamethylcyclopentasiloxane, better known as D5, is one of the most used silicones in cosmetics, but as it is a bioaccumulative substance, it also faces restrictions.

Fortunately, a breakthrough has been made. By blending specific fractions of sunflower, chia, and jojoba oils, a composition has been developed that not only mimics the skin’s sebum but also serves as a natural substitute for D5 silicone. This innovative product is known as PLUGIN GS.

PLUGIN GS: Natural substitute for D5 silicone.

Do you want the silicone sensorial, but maintain your formula natural and free from ingredients that harm the environment? Then, you need to test PLUGIN GS.

PLUGIN GS is an innovative combination of specific fractions of sunflower, chia, and jojoba oils in a composition that mimics the skin’s sebum.

It is a natural ingredient that offers the same benefits – proven in sensory tests – but without the environmental impacts associated with synthetic silicones.
