Sprayable Lotion Base
Our
Sprayable Lotion Base is a whole non-ionic emulsion that has been processed
utilizing techniques similar to those used in the production of liposomes.
This high shear technique has been employed predominantly by Liposome
manufacturers for many years.
In using
this technique, an entire emulsion can be processed via this high-shear method,
producing rather interesting results. After processing the traditional
non-ionic emulsion in this manner, the resultant particle size is then less
than 150 nanometers. This processing enables the use of lower levels of
emulsifiers, than would normally be found in a standard emulsion system.
The Sprayable Lotion Base can then be
employed in a dilution of 20-50% in order to prepare exquisite, light, and
milky sprayable lotions. In the Asian marketplace, milky, almost water-thin,
emulsions are extremely popular for their exquisite feel.
Unlike
the more traditional emulsion, these milky thin emulsions have a much more
rapid drying time than do traditional thicker emulsions. It is the high-shear
processing and dramatically decreased particle size that allows for this
action. Our Sprayable Lotion Base
may also be used to produce elegant fragrance delivery systems. The particle
size of the Sprayable Lotion Base allows
for an enhanced and long lasting fragrance lift. Any water soluble fragrance
may be added to the water phase of the development of the final formulation.
Any non-aqueous fragrance may be incorporated into the water phase of the
final formulation with the use of Polysorbate 20. Any other
water soluble or non-aqueous ingredients may be incorporated in the same
fashion as the fragrance additives.
Furthermore, Our Sprayable Lotion Base may also be used in the preparation of more
viscous creams or lotions with the addition of a thickening agent, in sprayable
hair conditioners, or sprayable deodorant preparations. The use of an additional
preservative may be necessary dependent upon initial dilution of Sprayable Lotion Base
