Information

Hydroxyethylcellulose is a plant-derived, water-soluble polymer used as a thickener, stabilizer, and film-forming agent in skincare and cosmetic formulations. It helps give products a smooth, consistent texture and improves their spreadability and feel on the skin.

Where does it come from?

It is derived from cellulose, a natural component found in the cell walls of plants. Through a gentle modification process, cellulose is transformed into hydroxyethylcellulose, making it more soluble and functional for cosmetic use while remaining biodegradable and non-toxic.

What are the benefits?

STABILIZING HYDRATING GENTLE

What are the benefits?

  • Texture: Provides desirable viscosity and texture to creams, gels, and serums.
  • Stabilizer: Keep ingredients evenly dispersed and minimizes separation.
  • Smooth application: Contributes to product glide and spreadability for a pleasant skin feel.
  • Hydrating: Creates a light, breathable layer that promotes hydration retention.
  • Gentle: Mild and suitable for sensitive and delicate skin types.

How is it used in our products?

Hydroxyethylcellulose is used in F96 Olive Glow Eye Patches and F97 Deep Glow Hydrogel Face Mask from OLIVEDA, and in HT Volumizing Mascara from OLIVE ROSE. It is included to create a smooth, stable consistency and contribute to the sensory experience. It promotes even distribution of active ingredients, enhances the texture, and maintains product stability without contributing to irritation or heaviness on the skin.
