What makes the conventional mascara?
Synthetic plastics, such as acrylic copolymer and PVP (polyvinyl pyrrolidone polymer), are found in many popular brand mascaras. They are used mainly as the binding agent/film former in liquid eyeliner to glue pigments and fillers together so the mascara can stays on your lashes. These synthetic plastics are derived from petrochemicals; contain residual monomers (the starting materials for producing plastics, namely acrylic monomers, vinyl pyrrolidone monomer and vinyl acetate monomer) that are not only toxic, but also reactive.
Synthetic dyes, glycol, alcohol and chemical preservatives are also used in conventional liquid eyeliner formulations.
Suncoat Pioneers Sugar-Based Technology
Suncoat has pioneered an innovative sugar-based technology for
cosmetics and hair styling products, using natural multi-sugar
biopolymer instead of synthetic chemicals.
For decades, synthetic plastics, typically PVP (polyvinyl
pyrrolidone polymer), acrylic copolymer, VA (vinyl acetate) polymer,
have been widely used in color cosmetics, hair styling products and
skin care products. They can be found even in many so-called natural
products. These synthetic plastics are derived from petrochemicals,
so not the best choice to enhance our natural beauty and to protect
our environment.
Suncoat has introduced a unique sugar-based technology to remove
these synthetic plastics. In Suncoat natural mascara, eyeliner and
hair styling products, a very unique sugar-based biopolymer
(polysaccharides) is used in place of synthetic polymers. This
sugar-based biopolymer is derived from natural renewable resources,
readily biodegradable and most importantly delivers superior
performance without harming our systems and the environment...
