Product Description

Product Description 

Lumorol K 5229 is a high-performance surfactant blend designed for use in personal care products, especially bath and shower formulations. It combines anionic and non-ionic surfactants to produce a self-emulsifying base that turns oil and water into a milky, cleansing emulsion.

Highly concentrated with 93% active ingredients, Lumorol K 5229 activates on contact with water to create a rich lather and luxurious foam. It disperses evenly in oil, making it ideal for crafting indulgent shower oils, foaming bath oils, and gentle hair cleansers.

The resulting oil-in-water emulsions rinse off easily, leaving the skin soft without residue.

 

Its mild formulation and pH of 7 in a 10% aqueous solution make it a great choice for sensitive-skin applications. It allows formulators to develop moisturising cleansers with high oil content and excellent foaming ability.

Lumorol K 5229 boasts a range of key characteristics that make it an excellent choice for various formulations. Its stability is enhanced when combined with low polarity oils, and it exhibits excellent solubility in almost all types of oils. The product’s performance is further highlighted by its ability to self-emulsify into a white oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion when mixed with water, making it an ideal choice for creating foaming shower oils and bath oils.

Lumorol K 5229 is perfect for product developers seeking ingredient flexibility, ease of use, and compatibility with natural raw materials.

 

How to use it

How to Use 

Skin Care 

  • When made up into a foaming shower or bath product, it cleanses the skin very thoroughly, it also leaves the skin moisturized due to the high oil content leaving the skin feeling soft and conditioned.

  • It is mild and gentle on the skin and is soothing for irritated skin types.

  • We have found that some essential oils will cause the end product to change colour, e.g., Lemongrass will turn a product containing Lumorol K 5229 a deep yellow/orange colour. Check with a small amount first when using different essential oils.

Hair Care 

  • For many people, it will work well as an elegant body and hair/all-in-one wash. For others, their hair would be best washed separately - it depends on your hair type and hair length. It can be effective to blend into shampoo formulations to make them more gentle on the hair and scalp.

Other 

  • Use 35% to 65% as a general guideline, depending on the oils it is combined with.

  • Oil soluble, so it cannot be used in water-only products.

  • If it is stored in cold conditions, it may sediment. This can be mixed whilst it is warmed gently to 30°C without affecting the quality.
