Quartz Exfoliator 500 - Exfoliating Particle is a 100% natural, biodegradable, GMO-free, and microplastic-free powder derived from high-purity quartz crystal. This beige, odorless ingredient delivers precise mechanical exfoliation with strong abrasivity while preserving the skin's hydrolipidic film. Available in fine grades (200 µm for facial use) and coarser grades (500 µm for body use), it offers controlled exfoliation with a luxurious, mineral-rich, sensorial feel. Stable across aqueous and anhydrous systems, it won't bleach or tint formulations. Positioned for clean beauty and sustainable lines, Quartz Exfoliator elevates formulations with its mineral authenticity, stability, and premium exfoliating performance.

Alter Emulfaba - Natural - Plant-Based - Emulsifier Powders is a 100 % plant-derived, surfactant-free emulsifier presented as an off-white powder. Sourced from aquafaba (chickpea cooking water), acacia gum, and sclerotium gum, it provides a clean-label, biodegradable solution that is fully compliant with ISO 16128 and COSMOS. It enables formulation of O/W emulsions—from lightweight milks to rich creams—with silicone-like sensory performance, replacing synthetic emulsifiers such as acrylates.
Alter Emulgel - Natural - Plant-Based - Emulsifier is a 100% plant-based powder emulsifier, combining konjac glucomannan, African birch bark extract, and sodium citrate. Its COSMOS- and ISO 16128-compliant formula delivers a silky, silicone-like sensorial experience, enabling the formulation of gel creams and emulsions with no greasy or sticky feel—perfectly replacing acrylate-based emulsifiers.
Alter Gelijac - Natural - Plant-Based - Gelling Agent is a 100% natural, plant-based gelling powder extracted from konjac root (glucomannan). It forms translucent, high-viscosity gels with a smooth, sensorial texture—an ideal replacement for synthetic polymers such as carbomers or PEG-based thickeners. This natural gelling agent delivers clean-label, biodegradable performance and is entirely vegan.
Alter Gelitium - Natural - Plant-Based - Gelling Agent is a 100 % natural, non-ionic plant-based gelling powder obtained via fermentation of the Sclerotium mushroom. This COSMOS-compliant, biodegradable ingredient forms ultra-transparent aqueous gels — ideal for lightweight serums, clear cleansers, and glossy masks. It also functions as a co-emulsifier, stabilizing emulsions by creating a network around oil droplets, effectively replacing synthetic polymers such as carbomers or PEG-based thickeners.
