Lotion Mulse 65 (INCI: Glyceryl Stearate, PEG-100 Stearate)

Lotion Mulse 65 – A Premium Self-Emulsifying Base for Luxurious Lotions

Lotion Mulse 65 is a high-performance, self-emulsifying base that combines Glyceryl Stearate (a naturally derived fatty acid ester) and PEG-100 Stearate (a water-soluble emulsifier). This synergistic blend is one of the most widely used emulsifying systems in cosmetic formulation, prized for its ability to create stable, elegant oil-in-water emulsions with exceptional skin feel.

As a primary emulsifier, Lotion Mulse 65 simplifies the formulation process by requiring no additional co-emulsifiers to produce stable creams and lotions. It functions by forming a protective lamellar network around oil droplets, ensuring long-term emulsion stability while imparting a smooth, non-greasy, and velvety finish to the skin. The Glyceryl Stearate component provides emollience and substantivity, while the PEG-100 Stearate enhances emulsification efficiency and thermal stability.
