In stick formulations, Desert Whale Jojoba Wax Flakes create a flexible non-brittle structure – improving stick strength, glide, color payoff, and creamy feel – while also allowing for a higher loading of pigments or emollients, if desired.
They can also be used as a film former or bodying agent. These unique wax flakes form a flexible film that prevents flaking in hair styling products and mascaras, and adds structure to emulsions.
Desert Whale Jojoba Wax Flakes are ideal for use in a broad range of applications including color cosmetics, lip care, hair care, skin care and sun care products. Recommended formulation types: Sticks, emulsions and anhydrous formulas.
Desert Whale Jojoba Wax Flakes enhance structure, glide and substantivity, while providing a creamy formulation texture, non-greasy emolliency and moisturization. Compared to traditional or other natural waxes they provide greater emolliency and less drag.
