AccessCARE Phyto Argan

Water-Dispersible Nano-Liposome Argan Oil for Aqueous Formulations

INCI Name: Glycerine, Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil, Water, Polyglyceryl-10 Stearate, 1,2-Hexanediol

AccessCARE Phyto Argan is a technologically advanced delivery system for Argan oil, making it fully dispersible in water. By encapsulating pure Argan oil in a nano-liposome structure, this active allows formulators to create clear, oil-free feeling aqueous products like toners, essences, and mists with the full benefits of a nourishing oil. This unique system eliminates the need for additional solubilizers or surfactants, enabling innovative, stable, and highly effective hydrating formulations.

Solubility Notes:

Water-dispersible. Easily incorporates into the water phase of formulations without additional surfactants; add at room temperature or during cool-down (<40°C).

Performance & Formulation Insights for AccessCARE Phyto Argan

How Nano-Liposome Technology Works

AccessCARE Phyto Argan utilizes advanced nano-liposome technology to encapsulate droplets of Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil within a hydrophilic shell composed of skin-mimicking lipids. These microscopic vesicles disperse uniformly in water, creating a stable, homogenous system without traditional emulsifiers or solubilizers. This delivery approach allows an oil to behave like a water-compatible ingredient and helps protect Argan oil from premature oxidation while enhancing the penetration of key nutrients, including oleic and linoleic acids, into the upper layers of the skin.

Formulation Guidelines & Technical Advantages

Simply add AccessCARE Phyto Argan to the water phase with gentle mixing. It can be incorporated at room temperature or during the cool-down phase (below 40°C). Recommended usage level: 2–10%, depending on the desired level of nourishment. By eliminating the need for separate solubilizers, this system simplifies formulas, reduces potential irritation from surfactants, and helps maintain clarity. It is stable within a skin-friendly pH range of 5.0–7.0, making it ideal for toners, essences, mists, and lightweight serums.
