Summer, Beach & Sun Protection: Raw Materials for Effective Sun Care Products from CREMER OLEO
Whether sun cream, lotion, stick, spray or after-sun care: especially in summer, sun protection is essential for taking care of the skin. It should provide reliable protection, be easy to apply, absorb quickly and leave the skin feeling pleasant. From sensitive children’s skin to convenient use on the go, sun care products need to meet a wide range of requirements.
That is why the entire formulation matters. The ingredients influence how easily a product can be spread, how stable it remains, how rich or light it feels and how the skin feels after application. With decades of experience in oleochemistry, CREMER OLEO offers a broad range of raw materials for sun care products.
Cremerlin®PURA
Our plant-based alternative to petrolatum is ideal for rich care formulations. It helps protect the skin from moisture loss, provides intensive care and leaves a rich, non-sticky skin feel – ideal for products that combine protection and care.
C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate
This fatty acid ester cares for the skin and leaves it feeling smooth and supple. It improves the spreadability of sun care products and helps prevent the skin from feeling too greasy. Manufacturers of sun care products also appreciate its antimicrobial effect.
Shea Butter
Shea Butter is a proven ingredient for nourishing sun protection and after-sun products. Rich in natural fatty acids as well as vitamins A and E, it nourishes, soothes and reliably protects sensitive skin. CREMER OLEO offers Shea Butter in various qualities, including organic quality.
MCT Oil
MCT Oil is made from coconut or palm oil and can be used in a wide range of cosmetic formulations. The oil provides a pleasant, stable texture, is particularly skin-friendly and makes products easier to apply.
Fatty Alcohols
Fatty Alcohols are produced from 100 percent vegetable oils and are of exclusively natural origin. In sun care formulations, they support the right consistency, structure and stability. This makes them important ingredients for classic creams and lotions as well as for solid products.
Glycerine
CREMER OLEO is one of the world’s largest independent suppliers of vegetable glycerine. In sun care products, glycerine acts as a moisturizer and contributes to a smooth skin feel. We offer both conventional and organic-certified glycerine.
1,3-Propanediol (PDO)
PDO is a natural moisturizer with a proven antibacterial effect. It can improve the skin feel and is suitable for various applications in sun care and skin care.
