Prior to the coronavirus pandemic, face masks might have been known first and foremost as beauty products in many parts of the world. Facial mask application and innovation went mainstream on the coattails of K-Pop as consumers sought to achieve the pure, supple complexion of Korean heartthrob music stars.

While the pandemic made face masks more synonymous with face coverings, it also furthered the facial mask trend in cosmetics. Stress, anxiety, and an emphasis on self-care are fueling the demand for new forms of facial care, including:

Inspirierte Lebensmittel

From pudding, avocado and chocolate to jam, facial mask formulation opens up opportunities for sensory creativity in texture and application. As convenient wash-off and peel-off formats depart from traditional sheet masks, Sensient’s water thickener Covacryl® range helps brands mimic many different food textures. From long play time for honey like texture, rich effect for a creamy texture to stringy or quick break effect for an aloe vera like texture. Take a look at some food inspired masks our application scientists came up with!

Einzigartige Texturen mit natürlichen Inhaltsstoffen

The name of the game today is clean beauty, and that applies to facial masks as well. Not only is the facial mask market size growing; it is also moving toward natural ingredients.

How do you “beautify” a product that is sold through the eyes but experienced by touch? Color is every bit as important as texture, especially in playful formulations centering on foods or fragrances. For transparent formulas, we recommend our Natpure® Col natural dyes from vegetable sources. They come in an extensive range of water and oil soluble colors, with improved color stability when you add our Covabsorb® UV filter to a formula.

Whether for coloring, health benefits or both, plants provide powerful facial mask capabilities. Our Natpure® line focuses on plant extraction. Natpure® Xfine is a range of pure vegetable extracts with active and coloring power, including beetroot, sweet potato, radish, carrot, spirulina, and turmeric.

Similarly, but separately, Natpure® Xtra botanical actives are obtained from our solvent-free, water-based PhytoClean™ process for a pure, gentle, repeatable extraction of a targeted biomass through pressurized, temperature-controlled water. Natpure® Xtra is available in cocoa (Natpure® Xtra Eternity), rosemary (Natpure® Xtra Vitality), guayusa leaf (Natpure® Xtra Integrity), and green tea (Natpure® Xtra Longevity) extracts, all proven to be potent active ingredients. Cocoa strengthens natural defenses to fight against skin aging, while rosemary strengthens the skin barrier by increasing the building blocks that support skin resilience and cell cohesion. Guayusa supports skin barrier integrity with restoration of proteins essential for barrier reinforcement and anti-inflammation. Green tea supports skin barrier with restoration of proteins essential for hydration and UV protection.

Here are some formulations that focus on using our natural ingredients.
