Olivem® 1000 is a PEG-free self-emulsifying multifunctional ingredient. It appears as white to ivory waxy flakes at 20°C with a melting point of approximately 70°C. It is a complex combination of fatty acids, chemically similar to the lipidic composition of the skin surface.
Olivem® 1000 has the ability to generate liquid crystal structures that mimic the stratum corneum organization. As the sole emulsifier, it provides a deep moisturizing effect with excellent spreadability and no soapy effect. It has good compatibility with Dihydroxyacetone and alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs).
