LACTIQUAT®

Water soluble cationic ingredient from upcycled raw materials


INCI

POLYGLYCERYL-3 BETAINATE LACTATE

DESCRIPTION

lactiquat
LACTIQUAT® is a synergistic formulation designed to offer a broad spectrum of personal care needs.
Together with lactic acid, central to its innovative formula is betaine, a versatile compound naturally present in the human body and added to cosmetic products to avoid moisturization loss thus improving the overall moisture balance.
Derived from natural and upcycled sources, specifically sugar beet molasses, betaine adheres to natural and organic certification standards by being non-toxic, non-sensitizing, and non-irritating.
The surface of all tissues, including the stratum corneum, carries a negative charge and it is already known that topical use of positively charged nanoemulsion leads to a better penetration of active principles (Baspinar Y et al., 2012).
The high cationic charge derived from betaine and maintained by lactic acid, leads to a more stable bond between the skin and the active.
LACTIQUAT® is suitable for skincare products, like conditioning body creams, personal care products, like detergents and shower gels.
LACTIQUAT® comes in liquid form and it can be used in cold processing.
