| Résumé : |
The demand for natural and green beauty products continues to grow, as do consumer expectations for effective results. The trend towards natural ingredients is growing with nature-derived surfactants becoming increasingly more desirable by both the formulator and the end user. This has been a graduai upward trend attributable to several factors, including a desire for sustainability, increased media coverage of the potential health side effects of some ingredients, and the demand for manufacturers to lower their environmental footprint. Natural soapnut extract meets the requirements of a surfactant while providing many additional benefits.
Natural surfactants are carbohydrate-based. They are plant-derived and use renewable resources, are readily biodegradable and do not add to the Earth's CO2 burden. One example is Vivimed's Nisarg Soapnut Extract, a very mild, biodegradable and skin friendly surfactant. Synthetic surfactants can be produced from oleo chemicals such as palm oil and are often called natural, while those derived from petrochemicals are synthetic. These types of surfactants can be harsh in their concentrated form giving rise to skin and scalp irritation.
The type of surfactants formulators use has changed over time. For example traditional Ayurvedic treatments involve ail natural surfactants. As time has progressed formulators have moved more towards synthetic surfactants, however today's consumer is more aware of the irritating potential and environmental impact of synthetic materials and are more readily considering products which use natural surfactants derived from plants. Figure 1 shows how the surfactant trend has progressed from natural to synthetic and is now shirting back towards naturally derived products. |
