Upcycled natural emulsifier from olives
Olivoil Glutamate LW is a patented plant-based anionic surfactant concentrated in glycerine, capable of creating dermo-compatible cleansing and rinsing products, which functions as a new generation surfactant.
✔ Very low water content.
✔ Ideal for solid and water-free cosmetics
✔ Ideal for refillable products, such as cleansing concentrates for dilutable formulations, reducing plastic usage
✔ Preservative free
✔ Vegan, Upcycling
✔ Ecocert and Cosmos approved and palm oil free.
It is composed of active ingredients such as olive oil fatty acids (containing skin-friendly unsaturated fatty acids, including oleic and linoleic acid) and glutamic acid (one of the most abundant amino acids in hair keratin and physiologically found in the skin). It is an emollient for the skin and is able to provide a gentle and effective cleansing action and restoration of the barrier function to promote long-lasting hydration and maintain homeostasis in the hydrolipidic film, even when used alongside sulphates/sulphonates. Ideal for hair care applications.
Olivoil surfactants can be used as both primary and secondary surfactants and are ideal for the development of clear end products for sensitive skin, baby care, hair care and many other rinse-off applications, with a significant impact on eco-sustainability due to their water-saving qualities and their suitability for plastic-free, waste-reducing, and refillable applications.
