Bath and hygiene

Join the party — the clean, green, natural scene is here to stay

Supercharge bath, hygiene and body routines with plant-powered ingredients

Consumers today inspect ingredient labels more closely, inspiring  a change in personal care towards easily recognisable, sustainably sourced and naturally derived ingredients.

What does a “clean label” mean?

As it has no regulatory definition, that depends on who you ask. It’s clear that consumers have growing concerns regarding the use of chemicals, potential allergens and irritants. Currently, the US bans 11 ingredients, the EU over 1300. With the global natural skin care market expected to grow to $25 billion by 2025, it’s no surprise that brands that position themselves as clean, simple and natural are reaping the rewards of conscious consumers. With the formulation experts at Ingredion, you can develop products free from undesirable chemicals and GMOs.

Clean label must-have: plant-based deodorant

Natural deodorants are a gateway for consumers to a cleaner personal care routine.  Stabilise complex emulsions by reducing breakdown and separation with aluminium-free FARMAL AF 1100 modified starch. Or try NATIVACARE 9360 natural tapioca starch for a heat tolerant, sustainably-sourced starch with smooth viscosity for sticks, gels and creams.

Rich, velvety shower gels

Cleanse and nourish with biodegradable FARMAL MS 6822, a bio-based polymer that transform dull gels, into creamy, rich washes with luxurious foaming and better rheology.

Pair it with FARMAL Xanthan 2312 TC for transparent thickening and to suspend exfoliators. Gentle for all skin types and easy to use in any application, including sulfate-free formulae.

Elevate your bath bars

With FARMAL CS 3757 starch and our other biopolymers, form long-lasting bar soaps while preventing mushiness and bar cracking. Create gentle, plant-powered bars for the face and body to cleanse and nourish skin without leaving it dry or stripped.

Natural starches improve creaminess and softness of foam, and NATIVACARE 8600 can increase fragrance retention and reduce cracking for a silky, touchable sensation in soap bars.
