In the cosmetic industry, innovation and creativity remain essential, and the growing demand for natural products has introduced new requirements. Consumers are increasingly favouring natural or naturally derived ingredients, pushing formulators to prioritise a high Natural Origin Index (NOI). However, combining a high NOI with product stability, sensory appeal, and optimal performance can be challenging.

Efficiency in search of naturalness

To meet this challenge, Shin-Etsu Silicones has developed a range of raw materials with a high percentage of natural origin. These innovative ingredients enable formulators to create unique, stable and high-performing products with excellent sensory, all while achieving a high NOI.

Shin-Etsu has development numerous orientation formulations that combine high NOI with performance and stability. These formulations serve as starting points for further creating advanced cosmetic products.
