- Product Highlights
Jojoba Glaze® LV (low viscosity) and Jojoba Glaze® HV (high viscosity) are anhydrous gels composed almost entirely of jojoba oil. They provide a new delivery mechanism with the same superior emollient properties of jojoba oil. Jojoba Glaze® is ideal for color cosmetics, hair care and skin care products.
The gelling agents used in Jojoba Glaze® are combination of two polymers: an ethylene/ propylene/styrene copolymer and a butylene/ethylene/styrene copolymer. Gelling occurs as the styrene portions remain intact. The insoluble styrene blocks combine to form a microscopic network of enclosed oil molecules.
Jojoba Glaze® is excellent for suspending pigments and particles of glitter and pearlescence. This makes it possible to create a variety of esthetically pleasing, novel skin and hair care products. The ability to suspend particles like sugar and salt, combined with its substantive emolliency after rinsing, make it an excellent base for shower scrub products. This combination allows for exfoliation with the simultaneous soothing, restorative properties of jojoba oil. Also, jojoba oil and Jojoba Glaze® do not suppress the foaming of surfactants as other cosmetic esters and triglycerides do. This allows the formulation of foaming salt and sugar scrubs that provide a unique cleansing experience.
Jojoba Glaze® , consisting of over 88% jojoba oil, is a superior emollient, providing gloss and moisturization to skin and hair. Jojoba Glaze® provides stability and emolliency in the oil base of an emulsion without feeling tacky on the skin. Because it is so substantive, Jojoba Glaze® is also an ideal ingredient for long-wearing color cosmetics.
