For over 60 years, Lubrizol has been delivering Carbopol® Polymers, our key technology that has created a positive global impact as the differentiating ingredient in countless innovations within the personal care industry. From its brilliant clarity to its controlled release properties, Carbopol® Polymers is the easiest dispersing carbomer polymer available today for use in clear gels and emulsion systems, such as creams and lotions. As the inventor of this technology, Lubrizol has a team full of technical resources that deeply understand its use in formulating for different applications.

Lipochroman is powerful bioinspired antioxidant that protects biomolecules and cellular functions from oxidative stress damage and may aid in skin detoxification. As a result, it may help to reduce signs of aging and improve the skin appearance.

A combination of several active ingredients incorporated in a new Lipotec’s delivery system that acts by different mechanisms to treat stretch marks already formed and also to prevent the appearance of new ones.

This hexapeptide improves the water flow from the epidermal basal layer to the stratum corneum to preserve and increase the rate of skin hydration. This hexapeptide increases in vitro the levels of Aquaporin 3 in keratinocytes, aquaglyceroporin responsible for ensuring the transport of water, thus contributing to maintaining skin barrier integrity. Naturality according to ISO 16128 - 49.98% natural origin content.

Novemer™ EC-2 polymer is a 20% solids, liquid, pre-neutralized polymer dispersed in oil. It is an easy-to-use, multifunctional polymer designed for use in skin care and sun care oil-in-water emulsions. Novemer EC-2 polymer enables elegant, stable emulsions containing active ingredients with electrolytes and suspended inorganic pigments.

Fermentation-based extract derived from clay microorganism that mimics the effects of clay on the skin; offers cleaner, smoother and more beautiful skin for all ethnicities and improved sense of well-being.

Combination of active peptides and proteins that provide an efficient treatment to restore the collagen levels of youth and mature skin, maintaining an adequate long-lasting collagen function that will ensure a healthy and youthful skin.

Protection against pollution provided by a polymer with metal chelating properties and a potent free radical scavenger. pollushield™ functional ingredient defends the skin from the damage caused by heavy metals, particulate matter (PM) and other harmful substances found in big cities and polluted areas.

A holistic peptidic approach towards a double barrier function reinforcement to restore vulnerable skin to its original condition, more like that of our ancestors, in closer contact to nature. It promotes microbiota balance, as shown in vitro, helping to boost the skin’s own defense system. Naturality according to ISO 16128 - 99.49% natural origin content.

xpertmoist® molecular film contains specific active ingredients with a high moisturising and regenerating effect that confers a pleasant feeling to the skin, even in extreme conditions. This occlusive improved delivery system has a great contact surface with the skin, minimising the TEWL and helping the active ingredients to penetrate more efficiently into the skin.

Shiitake mushroom-based extract providing a complete care of collagen in order to support a proper protein functionality leading to a firmer appearance of mature skin. Shows in vitro activity in increasing type I collagen and PLOD1 levels, as well as in reducing carbamylation process, responsible for the deterioration of skin proteins, such as collagen.

Reproage™ is a peptide that modulates the levels of microRNA-145 (miR- 145), involved in the regulation of epidermal differentiation. Reproage™ peptide may induce cell reprogramming to make the self-renewing ability of the epidermal basal layer last longer and help improve the skin complexion as a result.

Kelco-Care™ diutan gum is a water-soluble biopolymer produced by fermentation designed specifically for use in cosmetics and other personal-care applications. Kelco-Care™ diutan gum has exceptionally good thermal stability, is compatible with high levels of alcohol and polyols, and is readily biodegradable. This innovative technology won the Innovation Zone Silver Prize for Functional Ingredients at In-Cosmetics Korea 2021. ​ Kelco-Care™ diutan gum products are manufactured by CP Kelco U.S., INC.

High Molecular Weight, Cross-linked Copolymers containing both hydrophobic and hydrophilic portions within the molecule. The hydrophobic portion of the polymer adsorbs at the oil phase whereas the hydrophilic portion swells in the water forming a gel network around the oil droplets to provide exceptional emulsion stability.Stable oil-in-water emulsions with no or low levels of co-surfactantEfficient suspension and stabilization of insoluble materials and particlesThese polymers provide shear thinning rheology which enables easy pumping and spraying of finished productsTypical uses include polishes and automotive care products

Sunhancer™ Eco SPF booster is a natural-derived technology that increases the Sun Protection Factor SPF). The key is in its micron-sized particles made from a blend of sustainably sourced waxes.

Oilkemia™ 5S polymer is 30% solids in Caprylic/Capric Triglycerides. It is a multifunctional oil soluble rheology modifier designed to impart thickening with clarity and suspension in a broad spectrum of oils and oil mixtures such as vegetable-based oils, triglycerides, esters, and organic UV filters. It allows the development of a wide variety of textures from thin non-dripping systems to lotions or thick creams, and even solid stick. In anhydrous and emulsion systems, Oilkemia™ 5S polymer can improve the sensory experience by reducing the greasy afterfeel of the oils. This rheology modifier is very efficient in medium and high polarity systems, with an average use level of 1.0-6.0 wt% as-supplied for low to high viscosity oil gels.

Ferment extract obtained through biotechnology from a radiation-resistant microorganism. Lumicease™ blue ingredient activates the epidermal photosensors and prepares, protects and repairs the skin from solar and artificial blue light-induced damage, helping minimize the main signs of digital and photoaging.

Arbalon® R-50 cellulose liquid is a unique and highly functional form of pre-activated cellulose solution characterized by its ability to impart a true yield stress and suspend insoluble particles in personal care formulations while at the same time imparting a minimal negative impact on the final viscosity of the formulation. Arbalon™ R-50 cellulose liquid is an eco-friendly alternative derived from microbial fermentation process. Arbalon™ products are manufactured by CP Kelco U.S., INC. ​ Arbalon™ is a trademark of CP Kelco and is used under license.​
