Starches

Starches are polysaccharide granules extracted from corn. Chemical treatments, hydroxypropyl substitution and phosphate crosslinking help avoid syneresis while increasing stability and  resistance of starches in comparison to pH, high shear and temperature.

In formulation, starch granules swell to bring texturize and give your product a creaminess and pick up. 

 


StarDesign™ Care

INCI: Hydroxypropyl Starch Phosphate

StarDesign™ Care texturizer is a biodegradable (according to OECD 301 B) thickening and consistency agent for creating creamy textures with a matte effect. Nature-derived from waxy corn, it is a cold processible thickener that can be used in applications including skin care, hair care, cleansers, color cosmetics, and deodorants.
