This Make-Up Remover is a water-in-oil Pickering emulsion featuring AEROSIL® R 974 for particle stabilized emulsions. It leaves a fresh skin feel.
The formulation features AEROSIL® R 974 which is a moderately hydrophobic treated fumed silica that is efficient in the thickening and thixotropy of low and non-polar emollients. This ingredient is commonly used in w/o pickering emulsions and also aids in the anti settling of particles in liquid formulations.
TEGO® Betain F 50 is a very pure, mild, concentrated surfactant. It is microbiologically stable without preservatives and exhibits good foaming and thickening properties. Although it is a liquid it is easily thickened.
