Albiwax is a vegetable based wax obtained from the lipophilic fraction of apricot that has a light odor and is ivory to pale yellow in color. It is compatible in any cosmetical anhydrous form, or where a consistent lipophilic phase is present. Albiwax™ consistency factor makes it useful for anhydrous systems, lipogels, W/O emulsions, and O/W emulsions. Its best indications are for make-up products intended as a good analog of traditional waxes. It is intended to be inserted in the oily phase, during melting.
