LIPEX® SheaLuxe TR™

This climate-compensated, fully traceable shea-derived emollient ester is an excellent alternative to non-volatile silicones in light skin care formulations that demand a soft, silky texture and non-greasy after-feel.
Lipex SheaLuxe TR has a similar sensory profile to low molecular weight dimethicone in terms of viscosity, spreadability, and skin feel during and after application. In addition to excellent functional benefits, its superior sustainability credentials set it apart from alkanes and other plant-based esters. As with many of these, Lipex SheaLuxe TR is readily biodegradable and uses renewable resources processed using low temperatures and nontoxic catalysts. But it goes one step further as a fully traceable, climate-compensated product.
