INTRODUCTION OF Aevum Vita 532
Aevum Vita 532 is an anionic thickener and texturising agent which imparts noticeable sensory benefits to the end formulation. It can be used to create smooth and silky emulsions.
Aevum Vita 532 is supplied as an off-white liquid. To use Aevum Vita 532, add the thickener to the formulation, and disperse under medium to high shear conditions. Maximum viscosity build is achieved after stirring for approximately 15 to 30 minutes.
Aevum Vita 532 can be added at any point and is suitable for hot or cold processes.

Our formulations have passed an accelerated stability test at 40 °C. The viscosities were measured over time and showed that the formulations were stable and showed no visual degradation within this time.
Our silicone-free make-up primer was blind tested by 25 volunteers. Results showed that 88% of people would consider using this product on a regular basis, and the soft-after feel from Aevum Vita 532 was a clear sensory benefit.
Average ratings for after-feel, absorption, effectiveness, and skin-hydration were rating more than 7 out of 10.
Stickiness was rated 6 out of 10. In this case, this is within the optimum region for the formulation.
A make-up primer must be sticky enough to adhere make-up to skin flawlessly, without being unpleasant.
