The change of makeup remover cream, starting from the state of the cream
Compared with makeup remover and makeup remover oil, makeup remover ointment has more complex formula structure requirements.The product needs to maintain a certain hardness in the packaging, and cannot easily soften or flow due to temperature changes.However, when consumers use it, they cannot feel that the paste is excellent, otherwise the process of digging and pushing away will be affected.
Ideally, the makeup remover cream should gradually soften after touching the skin and be able to spread out quickly with the massage.This requires that the grease and structural raw materials in the formula maintain a more appropriate ratio.If the structure is insufficient, the product may be relatively soft and even deform in a high temperature environment.If the structure is too strong, although the paste looks stable, it may have a significant waxy or dragging feeling when used.
Surface cracking and graininess are becoming common problems in formula development
Some makeup remover creams are in good condition when they are just produced, but after they are stored for a period of time, small cracks will appear on the surface.There are also some products that have a more obvious graininess when used.Such problems are usually related to the internal structure of the cream body.
Different oils, waxes, and structural raw materials will undergo melting, mixing, and cooling during the production process.The melting point and crystallization characteristics of each raw material are not exactly the same. If a relatively uniform structure is not formed during the entire cooling process, rearrangement may occur during subsequent storage.After the temperature changes, this situation may become more obvious.
For makeup remover creams that contain a higher proportion of oil, the high temperature environment may cause some structural components to soften and the original internal structure to change.When the temperature drops again, the system re-forms the structure, and the relationship between grease and structure may also change.If this change is more obvious, the migration of grease to the surface of the paste may occur.
The choice of oil begins to affect multiple aspects of the makeup remover process
Oil has always been a core component of makeup remover products.It first needs to help dissolve makeup and sunscreen residues, while also affecting the ductility of the product and the skin feeling during massage.
NSOAF™IPM Isopropyl myristate is a traditional oil with low viscosity, high permeability and good solubility. It can be used in skin care, makeup remover and essential oil solvents.For makeup remover products, this kind of oil can be matched with other oils according to the formula requirements.
From oil phase to emulsification, makeup remover products need to find a new balance
The makeup remover process is actually not a simple dissolving process.If the oil phase has insufficient dissolving capacity, waterproof makeup may not be easily removed.If the oil phase performs well, but the emulsification speed is relatively slow, a more obvious oil film may be produced when rinsing.
PHSPTER ™MY94TS TRILAURETH-4 PHOSPHATE can be applied to emulsification and cleaning systems in personal care products, with properties such as emulsification, dispersion, wetting, penetration, decontamination and solubilization, and has a certain ability to resist hard water.According to different formula structures, it can be applied to facial cleansing products, bath products, shampoo and other systems, and can also participate in the emulsification design of makeup remover products according to actual needs.
Complex ligand system, providing more options for different makeup remover products
In addition to traditional makeup remover oils and makeup remover creams, there are also makeup remover, makeup remover, eye and lip makeup remover products, and some special double continuous phase systems.The requirements for emulsification and oil phase of different product forms are not exactly the same.
OILREE®MY943 SORBETH-30 TETRAOLEATE has good compatibility with most oils and fats, and can be combined with different types of oils and fats according to formula requirements to form a relatively uniform and delicate emulsifying system.In terms of application, it can be used for products such as makeup remover oil, makeup remover bubble, makeup remover cream, and cleansing oil.For formulas that need to adjust grease compatibility and emulsification performance, it can be used as an option in the overall system.
The skin feeling after removing makeup has also become part of product differentiation
If the cleaning power of the product is too strong, there may be obvious tightness after washing.If the oil phase is too heavy, it may make consumers feel that there is residue on their faces.Therefore, makeup remover products began to consider the balance between cleansing and care more.
OILREE®MY907 PEG-7 GLYCERYL COCOATE can be used as a supplementary oil in the surfactant cleaning system to help improve the smoothness after use, while having relatively little impact on foam.It can also be used as a solubilizer in the essential oil and active body system, and can be used in shampoo, bath products, makeup remover and other products.
The role of structural raw materials is also becoming more and more obvious
The structure in makeup remover products is not done only by waxes.The structural raw materials in the oil phase can also affect the hardness, stability and sense of use of the paste.
OILREE®MY720 TRIHYDROXYSTEARIN can be used for thickening the oil phase and stabilizing the emulsifying system, and has a certain lubricating, moisturizing and water-locking effect.In makeup remover cream, it can participate in texture adjustment according to the overall formula structure.When a product needs to find a balance between hardness, ductility and stability, the combination of different structural raw materials becomes more important.
Different product forms have different requirements for raw materials
Makeup remover oil pays more attention to the fluidity, solubility and emulsification speed of the oil phase after encountering water.Makeup remover cream needs to find a balance between oils, waxes and structural raw materials, while solving the problems of hardness, ductility and storage stability.
Makeup remover pays more attention to the stability of the lotion itself.Eye and lip makeup remover products need to deal with waterproof makeup that is more difficult to remove, while paying attention to the gentle use experience.
For example, OILREE®MYLA600 PEG-12 DILAURATE has emulsifying, solubilizing, dispersing and lubricating properties, can be used in personal care products, and can participate in the formulation design of makeup remover products according to system requirements.
From “removable” to “easy to use”, makeup remover products are changing
Oils and oils need to be responsible for the dissolution and extension of makeup, the emulsifying system needs to ensure the conversion after encountering water, the structural raw materials need to help the product maintain stability, and some auxiliary ingredients can further adjust the skin feeling and formula state.From this point of view, the upgrade of makeup remover products is not simply adding a new raw material.More importantly, whether a more suitable combination can be formed between different raw materials.
The high-temperature market needs to pay more attention to stability. Products that emphasize rapid makeup remover need to pay attention to the ability of the oil phase to dissolve, while products that emphasize refreshing skin feel need to rethink the ratio between oil and emulsion system.In this process, the emulsification direction such as Oil in water emulsifier can also be used as a reference for formula design, but in the end it is still necessary to combine the product form and the actual system for testing.
From the power of makeup remover to the overall experience, makeup remover products are entering a more detailed stage of formula adjustment.What consumers see is the sense of use of a product, and what really changes behind it is the closer and closer cooperation between grease, emulsification system and structural design.
