- Features
- OLEAMULS® WO forms a lattice of liquid crystals within the emulsion making it look smooth and glossy in appearance, hardly oily to the touch and pleasant to apply.
- It allows to formulate stable emulsions containing as low as 30 - 35% of natural oils as their sole source of lipids regardless of their polarity and obtain completely natural emulsions with a soft and light feel interestingly unusual in water in oil systems.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Test
- It has been proven that liquid crystal emulsions moisturize the epidermis and protect it by reducing TEWL.
Storage & Handling
- Shelf Life
- 36 Months
- Storage
If kept indoors in original packaging and under normal storage conditions the product remains intact for 36 months. Although within specifications due to the natural and vegetal origin of the raw materials used in the production process there might be slight changes in color or transparency from one batch to another which nonetheless do not affect the product performances. It is advisable to stir before incorporating in final applications.
