OLEAMULS® WS is a 100% plant-derived “hydrophilic lipid” with adjustable hydrophilic-lipophilic properties for cosmetic use. It is obtained from the esterification of olive oil’s fatty acids and vegetable polyglycerol. It represents a natural alternative to common PEG refatting agents and co-emulsifiers.

OLEAMULS® WS finds application as an O/W emulsifier and co-emulsifier for W/O emulsions or as a water-dispersible agent capable of bringing the moisturizing properties of Italian olive oil into a water-based formula.

OLEAMULS® WS has excellent skin and oral compatibility, strengthens the defenses of the hydrolipidic film, decreases TEWL and leaves a pleasant sensation of freshness on the skin when added to vegetable oils or esters.
