HEDI® Avocado (R10089)

HEDI® Avocado (R10089) is a unique combination of avocado butter with plant-derived squalane, radish seed extract, and vitamin E in a silicone-free microdispersion carrying more than 30% hydrophobe. Avocado Butter is an occlusive moisturizer to lock in moisture, rich in essential fatty acids and antioxidants. Squalane and radish seed extract act as emollients to help to soothe and soften, and improve skin barrier function. Vitamin E shields from oxidation and free radicals. Applications for HEDI® Avocado include moisturizing treatments for very dry, rough, and cracked skin, skincare products for sensitive skin, and skin, scalp, and hair care conditioning formulas.HEDI® products are stable ingredient blends of aqueous and oil-based materials made using a unique manufacturing process. HEDI® products are ultra-concentrated homogeneous constructs that are infinitely dilutable in aqueous systems. HEDI® products have superior aesthetics while simplifying formulation and manufacturing processes and enhancing the delivery of active ingredients in the formula. HEDI® products can be adjusted to achieve a consistency that is milk-like (pourable and even sprayable), creamy, or paste-like. Tactile properties can be light and silky or velvety and more occlusive. HEDI® products streamline manufacturing processes for time, energy, and cost savings by avoiding additional heating, melting, and mixing steps. HEDI® products are amenable to cold processes and do not require surfactants or emulsifiers.HEDI® products have properties similar to the skin barrier, promoting skin permeability and facilitating delivery through the lipid-rich, waterproof stratum corneum. Finished products have a better feel and provide superior surface coverage when compared to traditionally formulated butters and oils.
