How to Use EP-RL4-WH2535SD in Your Formulations

Understanding EP-RL4-WH2535SD Emulsion Pearls

Think of EP-RL4-WH2535SD as miniature “lotion bombs” suspended in your product. These are not just simple beads; each large, pearly-white sphere is a complete, pre-made oil-in-water emulsion. When a customer applies your product, these pearls burst with gentle pressure, releasing a fresh dose of a moisturizing cream packed with beneficial ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid, Shea Butter, and Panthenol.

This delivery system serves two key purposes for formulators. First, it adds a dramatic visual appeal that makes products look incredibly premium and sophisticated. Second, it creates a unique and satisfying sensory experience, transforming a simple application into an engaging ritual. The burst of the pearl signals the release of active ingredients, enhancing the user’s perception of the product’s effectiveness.

Formulation Tips

The key to working with these pearls is ensuring they remain intact in your product until the user applies them. Their large size (2.5–3.5 mm) requires a formula with enough thickness, or viscosity, to keep them evenly suspended.

  • Usage Rate: A typical usage rate is between 0.5% and 3%. Start with 0.5–1% for a subtle effect, or increase to 2–3% for a dense, visually impactful look.
  • Incorporation: Always add the pearls during the final step of formulation, in the cool-down phase, when the product is below 40°C (104°F). Adding them to a hot mixture or mixing too aggressively will cause them to break. Gently fold the pearls into your finished cream, lotion, or gel until they are evenly distributed.
  • Suspension: These pearls are best suited for thicker product bases like gels, heavy serums, or creams. To suspend them effectively in thinner formulas, use a rheology modifier (e.g., carbomer or natural gum) capable of creating a suspending gel structure.
  • Preservation: While the pearls contain a preservative system, your final formula must be adequately preserved on its own to ensure overall product safety and stability.

Key Performance Benefits:

  • Dramatic Visual Impact: The large 2.5–3.5 mm pearly white spheres create a stunning, luxurious appearance in clear or translucent formulas, immediately signaling a high-end product.
  • Unique Sensory Experience: Delivers a satisfying burst upon application, transforming a routine step into an engaging, multi-sensory experience that customers love.
  • Targeted Active Delivery: Releases a fresh dose of a moisturizing emulsion containing Sodium Hyaluronate for hydration, Shea Butter for nourishment, and Panthenol for soothing the skin.
  • Enhances Perceived Efficacy: The physical bursting action reinforces the idea of fresh, potent ingredients being delivered directly to the skin at the moment of use.
  • Formulation Elegance: Effortlessly elevates the texture and appeal of creams, serums, and masks, allowing formulators to create sophisticated and memorable products.

Frequently Asked Questions About EP-RL4-WH2535SD

They are a delivery system. Each pearl holds a mini amount of a moisturizing cream. When you rub the product onto your skin, the pearls burst and release this cream, adding a boost of hydration from ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid and Shea Butter while also making the product look beautiful.
We recommend using between 0.5% and 3% of the total weight of your formula. Use a lower percentage for a sprinkle effect, and a higher percentage for a very dense, pearl-filled look.
Always add them at the very end, during the cool-down phase when your product is below 40°C (104°F). Stir them in gently to avoid breaking them.
Because these pearls are quite large (2.5–3.5 mm), they need a thick formula to stay suspended and not sink to the bottom. They work perfectly in thick gels, serums, creams, and face masks.
No, they won’t dissolve. They are designed to stay as spheres in your product and only break apart with the gentle pressure of application on the skin.
The encapsulated emulsion contains Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic Acid), Shea Butter, and Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) to hydrate, nourish, and soothe the skin.
