Olivem 300 is a water soluble functional lipid based on Olive Oil technology from HallStar (formerly B&T of Italy). It provides emolliency and mildness to formulations, and, given its natural affinity for human skin, helps protect the skin from delipidation and irritation which may be caused by other surfactants.

Advantages in formulations

Often boosts the viscosity of surfactant systems
Provides emolliency to shampoos and cleansers
Provided wetting and moisturizing properties
High HLB value makes it a good emulsifer or co-emulsifier
High degree of biodegradability (over 90%)
No animal testing
Non-irritating
