Vita Catiogel

  • Company:

    QUIMIVITA PRODUCTS SL

  • INCI Name:

    Ceratonia Siliqua (Carob) Gum (and) Arginine (and) Succinic Acid

Vita Catiogel is a natural thickener compatible with cationic agents that increases the natural feel of your hair care. This alternative to carbomers of 100% natural origin is based on a carob tree (Ceratonia Siliqua) seeds cultivated in the Mediterranean area and has a wide pH stability range (4 – 8). Vita Catiogel combines succinic acid and arginine, both obtained by fermentation, and a high molecular weight polysaccharide (specifically a galactomannan) based on refined locust bean gum. This non-ionic hydrocolloid provides high viscosity, and it is ideal for transparent cosmetics. It can be used for rinse-off and leave-on conditioners, shampoos, and styling products.
