Clariant had returned to the leading personal care ingredient and formulation show in Asia – in-cosmetics Asia, with a strong line-up of high-performance ingredients. The three-day exhibition, held in Bangkok, Thailand from November 5-7, 2024, spotlight innovative products manufactured at Clariant's facility in Tangerang, Indonesia: Clariant’s Hostacerin™ CCT and Eclipsogen™ CAP series with Nanocon™, their patented encapsulation technology. Together they demonstrate how the less is more beauty concept is perfectly executed with the highest degree of simplicity thanks to breakthrough innovation and years of formulation expertise.

Under the latest minimalist beauty trend, more and more consumers have their eyes set on fewer high-quality products that can help them achieve the desired results on their skins through simplified skincare routines while maintaining maximized efficacy. With this less-is-more concept of beauty quickly gaining momentum, innovative ingredients that focus on enhanced performance and consistency with maximum effectiveness will undoubtedly be able to generate more demand from the market.

One of the featured products from Clariant, the versatile Hostacerin CCT™, taps right into this emerging minimalist trend. This easy-to-use emulsifier has a wide application area with cold mixing, enabling the creation of stable low viscosity skincare and wet wipes. Skin moisturization could be lifted significantly with as little as 10% of Hostacerin CCT™.

Another featured product from Clariant is the Eclipsogen™ CAP series, it’s the first encapsulated UV filters blends produced with Clariant’s Nanocon™ technology in Tangerang site. Even at low concentrations in formulations, Eclipsogen™ CAP helps achieve a high SPF value in sun care products.

Being cold processable, allowing the ease of formulation and readily compatible with sunscreen ingredients to enable light skin sensory with no white cast.

“Our highlighted ingredients, proudly manufactured in Tangerang, are designed to meet the everyday skincare needs with the complexity element taken out of the beauty equation - meaning that personal care products are there to perform with simplicity but without a compromise on performance” says Vipul Bhatt, Head of Personal & Home Care Asia Pacific.
