In-Cosmetics 2013

In-cosmetics is the leading global business venue for personal care ingredients.

Ashland invites attendees to imagine, collaborate and succeed in the personal care marketplace. Offering meaningful technical expertise in all phases of development, faster, more efficient routes to formulation, and innovative new ingredient technologies, Ashland helps consumer product makers turn great ideas into reality.

Ashland will present a range of new technologies for hair and skin care, including:

Actopontin™ biofunctional, inspired by dermatopontin, a key matrix-forming protein. Found in the dermis, dermatopontin interacts with many other proteins that form the core matrisome. Dermatopontin plays a major role in building and remodeling the skin matrix, controlling the formation of collagen fibers, and contributing to the maintenance of skin integrity and architecture. Actopontin biofunctional is recommended for use in skin care products that address skin elasticity.

APShield™ 100 polymer, a functional technology demonstrated to advance the performance of antiperspirant products.

Conditioneze™ 22 and Conditioneze 37E and 37M cationic solutions, new additions to Ashland’s leading line of conditioning and deposition polymers. Conditioneze 22 is recommended for use in shampoos and conditioners formulated especially for damaged and treated hair, colorant products and ethnic hair care products. Conditioneze 37 imparts excellent conditioning benefits in conditioners and hair masques and acts as a rheology modifier, enabling an enhanced rheology profile.

Lumiâge™ biofunctional, a new offering inspired by a natural photo-protective process involving the formation of skin microparasols. Microparasol integrity helps skin limit photo damage. The formation of microparasols is a dynamic process that requires an essential protein: p150Glued. Lumiâge biofunctional is inspired by p150Glued and improves the appearance of skin after solar exposure.
