BENTONE HYDROLUXE™ 360 is transforming the way formulators approach oil-in-water emulsions. This COSMOS-conform blend delivers stability, sensory excellence, and clean-label credentials in one easy-to-use solution.

Natural innovation, exceptional results
At the core of BENTONE HYDROLUXE™ 360 is Hectorite clay, a multifunctional mineral that does more than simply emulsify. It provides rheological modification for easy, reproducible formulation, while working in synergy with xanthan gum to improve flowability and reduce syneresis. The result is a stable emulsion that holds its structure over time, even under challenging storage conditions.
Sensory performance is where it truly stands out. Compared to traditional emulsifying waxes and commercial benchmarks, BENTONE HYDROLUXE™ 360 delivers superior softness, silkiness, and spreadability without unwanted stickiness or oiliness. Consumers enjoy a luxurious skin feel that enhances the perception of quality.
With a 100% naturally derived, vegan, and sustainable palm-compliant profile, this ingredient also supports the growing demand for clean beauty. Suitable for emulsions at pH 5.5–8.0 and effective at just 5% use level, it offers formulators the flexibility to create everything from light daily moisturisers to rich treatment creams – all with consistent, premium results.
