Raw Materials & Cosmetic Ingredients

Raw Materials & Cosmetic Ingredients

Our extensive range of premium raw materials are available to both manufacturers and individuals creating their own products and can be combined with our bases to create wellbeing and cosmetic products with your own unique touch.

Active Ingredients

Highly active specialty ingredients to boost the potency and efficacy of your skin and hair products. From ingredients that exfoliate, soothe, hydrate and revitalise to those that nourish skin cells and protect them from free radical damage.

Antioxidants

Anti-oxidants both rejuvenate the skin and protect it from free radical scavengers, troublesome molecules infamous for damaging healthy cells and causing premature ageing. Anti-oxidants are key to maintaining the skin's youthful elasticity.

Clays

Our beautiful, pure healing clays are sourced both locally and internationally. They are brimming with nutrients and minerals are ideal for the spa experience. Historically clay has been employed to promote health and wellbeing, its properties touted to detoxify, heal and rejuvenate. Soap makers will also find these clays perfect additions to their products in replacement of synthetic colours.

Colours

Make your products stand out from the rest by choosing from our rainbow of cosmetic colours, from the gorgeous natural looking blue stain of Indigo, to brilliant blue, sunset yellow and fiery red.

Exfoliants

Our range of natural exfoliants available in varying textures from coarse to fine allows you to create products for all skin types and concerns including the body, face and even the most sensitive of skins. From finely ground pearl for the face, to salt, to larger particles for a more rigorous scrub, ideal for body.

Humectants

Humectants are an important ingredient in skin and hair care as they act as a moisture magnet in your products, absorbing water from air and keeping the skin feeling plump and hydrated.

Preservatives

A critical component of any formulation is the need to establish an effective preservative system. We offer a wide range of all natural and industry standard preservatives used in the manufacturing process to inhibit microbial growth or undesirable chemical changes in a product.

Resinoids, Gums & Crystals

Fine tune your fragrances with resinoids, gums, balsams, and crystals produced during the extraction process of essential oils. Resinoids and gums are heavily used in perfumery due to their unique aromas. These products can be used to fixate and blend your fragrances, colognes, soaps and incense.

Solubilisers & Emulsifiers

Solubilisers and emulsifiers are used to make products work - making the transition of one ingredient into another, a smooth one. We offer solutions for all hair and skincare products including moisturizers, shampoos, skin cleansers, bubble baths and body washes.

Solvents

Solvents (carriers) are helpful for dissolving common cosmetic ingredients, enabling you to attain the quality you desire in a product. From demineralised water, cyclomethicone to ethanol.

Thickeners

To increase the viscosity of your products we offer a wide range of natural and synthetic thickeners for all applications. From guar gum, xanthan gum to carbomer and cyclomethicone.

Vitamins

Vitamins are micronutrients that enhance the cosmetic manufacturing experience. They are classified by their chemical activity and are beneficial in promoting added benefits to your cosmetic products. They have diverse biochemical functions; they can act as anti-oxidants, cell regenerators, and as catalysts for many biological functions of the skin.
