Emulsifiers for creams and lotions


Gattefossé emulsifying bases meet the many difficulties formulators face in working with pharmaceutical actives such as extremes of pH, insolubility, and heat sensitivity.

These bases are consistently used to formulate dosage forms of all types: from sprayable fluid emulsions to anhydrous creams. With excellent skin tolerance profiles, these emulsifying bases will help you develop safe and stable topical products.

The selection of an appropriate emulsifying base is driven by the desired appearance and consistency of the final product, the type of emulsion (O/W or W/O) needed, and the specific characteristics of the active (solubility, physicochemical properties, chemical stability).
