Body painting is an ancient form of art, allowing people to express their personality and creativity. Through intense shades and meaningful designs, true works of art can be created. Drawings painted onto the skin must remain flexible to follow the movement of the body and need to last from a few hours up to several days.
Richly pigmented paints that dry quickly are a must-have. The SYNTRAN® technology allows you to achieve these attributes in your formulations. Our polymers form an extremely shiny and water-resistant film on the surface of the skin. The formulation can be worn all day without any feeling of tension. Due to the transparency of the film, the authentic colours of the utilised pigments are shown off to their best advantage.
Emollients can be used in a variety of ways. First of all, they create a pleasant, smooth feel by nourishing and relaxing the skin. With a combination of different emollients, moisturisation and additional sensory effects can be achieved, such as a pleasant feel on the skin and comfortable wear. In addition, emollients can enhance pigment dispersion and stability in colour cosmetics products.
Emulsifiers are surface-active substances that are used to combine two originally immiscible or only partially miscible liquids like water and oil. Gentle cleansing emulsions are mainly used in facial cleansing, for instance as make-up removers.
Our acrylic resins are clear polymers with dispersing properties. Pigments are added to the SYNTRAN® dispersants in order to produce stable pigment dispersions. The result: good colour properties and high gloss in cosmetic products. In addition, they ensure that the pigments remain well-dispersed – even if only small quantities are added.
Solubilisers are used to produce clear aqueous solutions of different oils, like perfumes or essential oils of various origins. Caring components can also be incorporated into make-up formulations.
Our ready-to-use pre-dispersed pigments enable manufacturers to mix pigmented formulas right away. Thanks to the choice of different ingredients, great colour strength and excellent coverage properties can be achieved – without compromising the properties of the film former in the end product, such as shine, adhesion and water resistance.
