A Multifaceted Approach to Luminous Skin
Luminosity is synonymous with healthy, vibrant, glowing skin. Lonza Consumer Care delivers
solutions for luminous skin via biotechnologically-derived actives, botanical extracts and purified
molecules.
Lonza Consumer Care is pleased to introduce its next-generation biotech active, ReGeniStem™ Brightening. Derived from the meristematic stem cells of licorice, this easy-to-use, oil-soluble skincare active contains a high level of actives to help brighten skin. Imperfections come in many different forms; whether they are under-eye circles, beauty marks or simply lackluster skin. Designed to brighten skin and even skin tone without irritation, ReGeniStem™ Brightening is the latest solution for radiant, healthy-looking skin.
In addition, Lonza Consumer Care will be launching Niacinamide USP PC, a multi-benefit active, to the global Personal Care market. Lonza has been a leading manufacturer/supplier of vitamin B3 for more than 40 years producing Niacinamide in different forms for a number of consumer markets. Niacinamide has been used for years to enhance the efficacy of skin care and hair care formulas. Niacinamide USP PC, which is low in niacin, helps to enhance the tone and texture of skin and improve its overall appearance.
Protect and Preserve New Forms of Beauty
Keeping consumers safe from product contamination throughout a product’s life is essential for
brand and product success. Lonza’s portfolio of Preservative and Protection Systems offers
solutions such as broad spectrum activity, traditional and next-generation and natural technologies,
and chemistries that are accepted for use in global formulations.
The latest addition to its portfolio is Geogard® LSA preservative blend, a highly efficacious broad spectrum antimicrobial blend comprised of several non-traditional ingredients, which have wide global approvals. This next-generation preservation option meets consumers’ key desired effects and can be readily incorporated into formulas.
Create Aesthetically Pleasing and Texturally Intriguing Formulas
There are many ways to enhance the appearance, feel and functionality of a finished formulation.
Lonza Consumer Care provides formulators with a unique tool box of technologies to allow them to
create intriguing, consumer-desirable products.
The Polyaldo® polyglycerol esters series allows for the creation of a range of formulation bases with aesthetic appeal. These multifunctional ingredients are manufactured using natural, renewable resources; and are safe and free of 1,4-dioxane and any of its precursors. These natural emulsifiers are ideal for both rinse-off and leave-on applications providing moisturization properties along with a pleasant skin feeling.
