CO-EMULSIFIER FOR O/W & W/O

Creating natural emulsions with a luxurious skin-feel is a challenging task. Sisterna sucrose esters are excellent natural co-emulsifiers for both oil-in-water (O/W) and water-in-oil (W/O) skin care emulsions. Furthermore Sisterna sucrose esters provide an excellent touch and improve smoothness, emolliency and moisture level of the skin.

O/W emsulsions

Sisterna sucrose esters with a high HLB value are recommended for the development of O/W emulsions.

W/O emulsions

Sisterna sucrose esters with a low HLB value are recommended for the development of W/O emulsions.
