PARAFOL
PARAFOLS are highly pure, single cut paraffins. These materials are part of the alkane category, a group of emollients that can be absorbed quickly, as well as lock in moisture to keep skin hydrated, soft, smooth, and supple. PARAFOLS also can create different velvety and non-greasy textures; improve coverage, consistency, and glide of products; increase distribution of pigments; and prolong the wear of cosmetic formulas.
Features:
Plant-derived, highly pure; clear; colour- and odourless; biodegradable; oxidative stability; temperature stability; pH stability; volatile; sharp melting profile; low heat of evaporation compatible with silicones, lipophilic cosmetic ingredients and UV filters
