100% plant-based emollient ideal for balm applications
Sonneborn, LLC, an HF Sinclair brand, has launched SonneNatural™ NXG, a new plant-based emollient for use in the formulation of personal care products.
SonneNatural™ NXG is Sonneborn’s firmest plant-based emollient, enhancing the formulation of lip care and personal care products due to its firmness and sensory properties. The product’s naturally derived firm texture reduces the amount of thickener or wax required in the end formulation for anhydrous formulas.
The innovative new emollient offers a unique combination of properties, including non-greasy application, excellent moisture retention and an occlusive afterfeel that leaves skin feeling soft and luxurious.
Designed as an emollient to promote sustained moisturization, SonneNatural™ NXG has been developed with a low odor, excellent stability and unmatched emolliency, enabling it to formulate truly superior personal care products, including lip balm, lipstick, body lotion and facial scrub.
Anna Turner, Segment Marketing Manager – Personal Care at HF Sinclair, said: “For formulators that require a firm emollient with excellent sensory properties, SonneNatural™ NXG is a game changer in the development of high-quality plant based personal care products. Specially developed with an occlusive agent to help stabilize cosmetic formulas, the product is a perfect plant-based alternative to lanolin or other animal-based emollients and means that formulators no longer need to settle for inferior substitutes.”
SonneNatural™ NXG is part of Sonneborn’s SonneNatural family of products that have been specially developed with the purest, highest-quality bio-based chemistry to make the finest range of natural emollients on the market. Utilizing Sonneborn’s expertise as a leading global manufacturer of high-purity specialty products, the SonneNatural line offers a full range of 100% natural alternatives to traditional products used in personal care formulations.
