New ingredients to cater to the natural and ‘skin glow’ trend 

Elementis introduces two new ingredients – BENTONE HYDROCLAY™ 700 and BENTONE® PLUS GLOW, which answer the demand of natural skin care and the “skin glow” trend. 

BENTONE HYDROCLAY™ 700-Versatility through Synergy: Hectorite X Biopolymer

100% natural, COSMOS approved and non-GMO, BENTONE HYDROCLAY™ 700 is a combination of a high purity hectorite grade and xanthan gum that provides a synergistic effect for the utmost stability. It offers a light sensory, imparts a smooth silky skin feel, and has a high electrolyte and pH tolerance, which allows for formulation robustness and versatility. 

BENTONE® PLUS GLOW- Radiance Unleashed! Hectorite X Actives

Responding to the up-and-coming “skin glow” trend, BENTONE® PLUS GLOW, a new and patent pending hectorite gel technology, joins forces with naturally derived active ingredients to combat signs of dull and flaky skin, unleashing the inherent radiance of the skin. Elementis’ hectorite gel technology enables formulators to create products with outstanding textures and extremely diverse sensorial properties. Its superior properties in make-up allow for instant skin glow effects. 

BENTONE® PLUS GLOW is shortlisted in this year’s Innovation Zone Awards, Best Functional Ingredient Category. The announcement of the winner will be held on 8th November at 5:15 pm.
