Hot Pours
Waterless hot pour formulations have grown in popularity in personal care and color cosmetic applications. Our melting waxes improve the structure of hot pour formulas without the need for other structural polymers and increase stick strength while preventing syneresis. Our ultrafine powders can help to dramatically improve long wear, aesthetics, lubricity and spreading, oil absorption and mattifying.
