Cold pocessable W/O emulsifiers for the preparation of spreadable emulsions with a water content of up to 74 %. Concentrations of just 2 % - 3 % are very effective. The light W/O emulsions break down on the skin. The oil phase produces an occlusive layer that creates an underlying moisture chamber effect.
