Creagel® Crystal Inner Glow

The Innovation Company®

Creagel® Crystal Inner Glow is a viscosity-enhancing and texture-modifying agent featuring a viscoelastic rheological profile with predominantly elastic behavior. It exhibits excellent structural recovery after shear, with rapid recovery that remains sustained over time, making it particularly suitable for formulations requiring long-lasting texture stability. The zeta potential ranges from -63 to -74 mV at 24°C and from -68 to -78 mV at 34°C, indicating strong electrostatic repulsion and favorable colloidal stability, which contribute to emulsion stabilization. Its anti-aging performance is demonstrated by Wet SEM analysis, showing a 59% reduction in wrinkle depth (Delta D) and a 37% reduction in wrinkle width (Delta W), 5 min after application. Furthermore, elasticity measurements reveal significant improvements across the different skin layers after 10 minutes: +59% in the stratum corneum, +47% in the epidermis and +25% in the dermis, highlighting its ability to improve skin elasticity and firmness. Creagel® Crystal Inner Glow also demonstrates remarkable film-forming, with transepidermal water loss (TEWL) reduced by 54% after 1 hour and 52% after 3 hours, indicating a sustained effect in limiting water loss. Beyond its skincare benefits, Creagel® Crystal Inner Glow also offers a volumizing effect on hair, with Wet SEM analysis showing a 14.8% increase in hair volume after just 5 minutes of application. Finally, its tribological coefficient of 0.068791 contributes to favorable application properties, supporting smooth spreadability and a pleasant gliding sensation during use.
