ALTER-TALCANIOC is a plant-based alternative to talc, made from cellulose acetate and tapioca starch.

It offers hydrophobic properties, providing excellent moisture absorption while leaving a soft, powdery feel.

Thanks to its absorbent assets and its extreme softness, it is ideal to give a soft touch to formulations.

Tests show that ALTER-TALCANIOC can absorb over twice its weight in sebum, making it highly effective in oil control formulations.
