Prolipid 141™ is an innovative self-emulsifier from International Specialty Products (ISP). This lamellar system provides unique benefits which no other system can deliver: outstanding moisturization, skin barrier strengthening, uniform delivery of actives and product structuring. ProLipid 141 also provides exceptional aesthetics since high levels of oily materials feel dry and silky when delivered from this lamellar gel.
We recommend using a high shear mixer, such as a stick blender or homogenizer to create Prolipid 141 emulsions. Utilizing water soluble polymers, such as HEC at 0.5%, will help to thicken and stabilize the water phase of the emulsion.
Prolipid 141 is recommended for all creams and lotions. It is particularly recommended as an excellent vehicle for the delivery of actives such as sunscreens and anti-aging ingredients.
There may be incompatibilities with silicones. We recommend using less than 0.5% silicones.
Recommended Usage: 3.0% - 5% for most emulsions
