CosmeticChemicals.com offers a wide range of raw materials for use in developing new skin care products or in efforts to optimize existing ones.  Creams, lotions, balms, etc. can all be improved with our silicones and specialty organics.  In many cases, it is these special "enhancers" that make or break the performance of a skin care product -- as well as differentiate it from other skin care options.

In addition to the luxurious feel that silicones provide, they can also improve spreading on the skin's surface, provide excellent moisturing and emolliency, and can improve the overall longevity (or substantivity) of the lotion or cream.  Combined with some of the "workhorse" organic chemicals, like many of our glycols, a myriad number of products with varying levels of performance can be developed.

For skin care applications, CosmeticChemicals.com offers a wide variety of raw materials, including:
