Sun Care
Ashland receives supplier ingredients and formulation award at CEW Beauty Awards for its mineral-based sun stick with SPF 50. Antaron™ (Ganex™) WP-660 polymer is the main ingredient in the mineral-based sun stick SPF 50 formula.
Polymer Offers Water Resistance
Antaron™ (Ganex™) WP-660 polymer is a well-trusted film former for water resistance and SPF boosting. Ashland has found that this vegan suitable ingredient boosts SPF in formulas with inorganic sunscreens and provides a uniform film coating.
“
Ashland’s Mineral-Based Sun Stick SPF 50 won as a less-touch, less-mess solution for sun care with high SPF, water resistance, and a smooth glide that rubs in easily for a more enjoyable consumer experience,” said Jennifer O’ Hara, global skin care marketing manager, Ashland.
Award Recognizes Effective Product Launches
The award was presented virtually at the CEW’s cocktails event. Sponsored by New York Society of Cosmetic Chemists (NYSCC), the award category recognizes the role that ingredients,
formulations and new technology play in successful consumer product launches.
“
The showcased application was a fun way of illustrating the power of our ingredients and how clever formulation formats can solve consumer problems. We are committed to creating safe, truly efficacious solutions and are working tirelessly to solve for more sustainable solutions,” said Hara.
Ashland’s entry was selected from more than 40 submissions that were reviewed and voted upon by a curated panel of judges that included leading beauty and personal care brands including members of the NYSCC Program Committees.
