How to Use EP-RB1-BB3545 in Your Formulations

Understanding EP-RB1-BB3545

Think of EP-RB1-BB3545 as a complete, ready-to-use moisturizer elegantly packaged inside a soft pearl. These large, creamy white pearls suspend in your base for a stunning visual effect. When the product is applied, gentle rubbing bursts the outer layer, releasing a rich emulsion onto the skin for a memorable, moisture-boosting experience featuring Shea Butter, Sodium Hyaluronate, and Panthenol.

Technically, EP-RB1-BB3545 is an agar-based encapsulation of a stable oil-in-water emulsion designed for friction-activated release. The pearls measure approximately 3.5–4.5 mm in diameter and contain a preserved emulsion. This delivery system elevates both the aesthetics and performance of masks, serums, body butters, and specialty spa products.

Formulation Tips

Use a sufficiently viscous base to suspend the pearls uniformly—high-viscosity gels, rich creams, or oleogels work best. Incorporate EP-RB1-BB3545 during the cool-down phase below 40 °C (104 °F) with slow, gentle mixing to avoid rupture. A standard propeller mixer at low speed is suitable; avoid high shear. Clear packaging can showcase the visual appeal, and if using a pump, ensure a wide orifice that won’t crush the pearls.

  • Recommended Usage Rate: 0.5% to 3% by weight; start at ~1% for a noticeable effect and increase for denser visuals.
  • Suspension is Key: Build a gel network with rheology modifiers (e.g., carbomer or Xanthan Gum) to hold 3.5–4.5 mm pearls evenly.
  • Gentle Mixing: Add at cool-down and stir slowly to prevent premature rupture.
  • Packaging: Ideal for clear jars or bottles; use wide-orifice dispensers if pumping.

Key Performance Benefits

  • Dramatic Visual Impact: Large 3.5–4.5 mm pearls create a luxurious, high-end look.
  • Unforgettable Sensory Experience: Satisfying burst-on-application for a multi-sensory moment.
  • Fresh Dose of Actives: Delivers Shea Butter, Sodium Hyaluronate, and Panthenol at the moment of use.
  • Formulation Versatility: Elevates masks, serums, rich creams, and spa treatments.
  • Easy to Use: Pre-formed system; add during cool-down without complex processing.

Frequently Asked Questions About EP-RB1-BB3545

It’s a delivery system—soft, spherical pearls that hold a complete moisturizing cream inside. You add these pearls to your own gel or thick lotion to elevate visual appeal and provide a fun burst-on-application experience.
A good starting point is 0.5% to 3% of total formula weight. Use less for a subtle look and more if you want the pearls to be a major visual feature.
Add at the very end, once your product has cooled below 40 °C (104 °F). This prevents the agar shell from softening or melting. Stir gently.
Your base must be thick enough to suspend them. Use a rheology modifier (e.g., Xanthan Gum or carbomer) to create a gel network capable of supporting 3.5–4.5 mm pearls evenly.
No. They’re designed to burst when rubbed onto the skin, releasing the emulsion inside rather than dissolving like a powder.
Yes, the internal emulsion is preserved with Phenoxyethanol. You still need a broad-spectrum preservative system for the overall formulation.
