Renowned for its versatile benefits, Panthenol is an indispensable addition to a wide range of formulations. This ingredient supports the skin’s natural barrier, helping to protect against external stressors while promoting hydration. Its calming and anti-inflammatory properties make it an excellent choice for addressing irritation, while its wound-care capabilities aid in skin recovery and repair. Its ability to strengthen skin, hair and nails make it an ideal all-rounder active for every formulation. Sourced sustainably, our Cosphaderm Panthenol natural delivers exceptional quality, aligning with growing demand for effective and eco-friendly cosmetic ingredients.

Cosphaderm® Octiol natural is a pure and colorless glycol. It is used as a moisturizer and Humectant for both skin care and hair care formulations. Static light scattering experiments have shown that Cosphaderm Octiol natural can also be used to stabilize o/w emulsions by droplet size reduction. Another property of caprylyl glycol is its pH-independent antimicrobial activity. It further shows remarkable synergistic effects in combination with other antimicrobial substances, making it possible to minimize the total amount of combined preserving agents.

Cosphaderm LAAS is an aqueous mixture of levulinic acid, p-anisic acid and glycerin. Established as a highly effective combination of natural antimicrobial agents, additional skin conditioning and masking properties are provided by levulinic acid and p-anisic acid. Furthermore, the glycerin content in this preparation helps to support the hydration of the outer layer of the skin. The optimal pH range for Cosphaderm LAAS is between 5.0 and 5.5 to keep antimicrobial activity and solubility in perfect balance. This makes it a perfect choice for formulations at skin pH.

Cosphaderm® Sodium Hyaluronate low is the sodium salt of low molecular weight hyaluronic acid produced by all-natural fermentation and physical purification processes. In human tissue, hyaluronic acid is an essential part of the extracellular matrix. It binds water and serves as a natural humectant and anti-aging ingredient for the skin, guaranteeing its elasticity and moisture retention. Due to its low molecular weight of less than 50 kDa, Cosphaderm Sodium Hyaluronate low can penetrate deeper into the skin for a long lasting moisturizing and anti-aging effect. With regular use, its ability to connect to skin keratin results in reduction of wrinkle depth, long-term humidification and increased skin elasticity.
