Diatomaceous earth is composed of microporous siliceous fragments of fossilised skeletal remains of aquatic algae, known as diatoms. Due to its micro-porous structure, the ImerCare® D range offers ultra-high absorbency power for make-up and deodorant applications. Benefits and applications – Dry touch agent and body control in deodorants – Sebum absorption and fast drying time in face masks.
Perlite products are made from a volcanic glass which contains 2-6% water in its inner structure. When heated to around 900°C, the water trapped within the structure is vapourised, causing the material to expand. The ImerCare® P range is used in many different personal care products which require exfoliation or high-absorbency properties.
