Absorption
ImerCare®‘s range of 100% natural minerals are designed to give superior absorption in deodorants, face masks, face creams, powders and foundations.
Naturally absorbent minerals to boost your cosmetics
Our completely natural minerals provide superior absorption in cosmetics such as deodorants, face masks, face creams, powders and foundations.
Kaolin is a naturally occurring hydrated aluminum silicate. Careful processing of kaolin results in soft, fine particles that confer excellent sebum absorption and mattifying properties. Used in face masks, our ImerCare® K kaolins have a purifying and detoxifying effect on the skin, removing impurities and stress.
ImerCare K kaolins are also excellent sebum and impurities absorption agents in liquid and powder foundations, and make-up bases, moisturizers, mattifying day creams for oily skins, anti-acne creams and both CC and BB creams.
We particularly recommend:
- ImerCare® Matte kaolin for a natural matte effect in day creams, liquid foundations and pressed powders
- Imercare® Opaque to add a boost of oil absorption and fine exfoliation to face masks
- ImerCare® 2K kaolin, Imercare 06KS and ImerCare 04K kaolin for face masks
Diatomaceous earth is another natural mineral with a high surface area and micro-porous structure. ImerCare® D grades of diatomaceous earth demonstrate excellent absorption in face masks and face creams. We particularly recommend ImerCare® 06D grades and ImerCare® 400D grades to decrease drying time in facemasks.
Imercare 06D with its fine particle size and high absorption can be utilized in cream to powder cosmetics to tailor the drying effect and sensorial properties.
ImerCare 400D diatomaceous earth is also ideal for sweat absorption in deodorants and antiperspirants. Due to the exceedingly high surface area of its mineral particles, ImerCare 400D grades are the most water- and oil-absorbent diatomaceous earth product available on the market today.
ImerCare 400D grades:
- Demonstrates high perspiration absorbency
- Controls body odor
- Dries quickly leaving a nude skin sensation
- Gives a pleasant soft-touch feel
All our cosmetic products are natural, high quality, chemically inert and offer good skin tolerance. They are not treated with chemicals during processing. These attributes enable them to be used in cosmetic products that comply with cosmetic directive regulation (EC) n° 1223/2009.
