- Product Highlights
ECODROPGEL is a silicone free water drop system for highly moisturizing effect for W/O emulsion. Water Drop emulsions originated as a K-Beauty concept and provide this highly desired visual and sensory effect for consumers.
Shearing forces generated by the rubbing in or application of the cosmetic formulation cause the water in oil emulsion to rupture, thereby causing the internal aqueous phase to emerge in the form of droplets. The water droplets are large enough for the visual effect and the desirable cooling and moisturizing effect as the water evaporates on the skin.
Applications & Uses

- Formulation Tips
ECODROPGEL can be used to produce a range of textures in skin care formulations while maintaining the water drop moisturizing effect. Product textures range from soft creams to firm balms.
Recommended use level for EcoDropGel is 3 to 6% dependent on the oil phase quantity. However the use level of EcoDropGel should be optimized to create a stable macro emulsion which maintaining the Water Drop Effect.
When formulating with EcoDropGel, the water phase must be added to the oil phase with increasing agitation speed to produce a w/o emulsion with larger water droplets. Use of a homogenizer is not recommended since this higher shear will reduce the water droplet size and the water drop effect will be lost.
Additional considerations when formulating with ECODROPGEL include the addition of active ingredients, fragrances and preservative type and use level. Any instability issues can be corrected by increasing the concentration of ECODROPGEL or MLB. Adding MLB is more workable to improve emulsion stability
