Castorlatum is a vegetable-based blend of (INCI) Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil and Hydrogenated Castor Oil manufactured using a proprietary processing technology to achieve a gel-like, colloid suspension. It looks and acts very much like petrolatum. Castorlatum can be substituted for petrolatum in all cosmetic and body care applications. Castorlatum provides excellent UV and oxidative stability, exceptional wetting properties, humectancy and film forming properties.
Though Castorlatum's emolliency is excellent, its comparatively reduced “greasy” after-feel makes it invaluable in formulation. In lip care products, Castorlatum provides a high gloss look. It is an excellent make-up remover.
