How to Use Starphere F5-BZ56RG10 in Your Formulations
Understanding Red Ginseng Delivery Beads
Starphere F5-BZ56RG10 provides an exciting way to add both functional benefits and visual appeal to your cosmetic products. Think of them as tiny capsules that protect a powerful active ingredient—in this case, Red Ginseng Root—until the moment of application. When a user rubs the product onto their skin, the gentle pressure breaks the bead, releasing the ginseng in its fresh and potent form.
Made from natural corn starch, these beads are fully biodegradable. Their particle size of 425–600 μm makes them visible in clear or translucent formulas, creating an intriguing look. This size is carefully chosen to be large enough to see but small enough to break down smoothly without feeling rough or abrasive on the skin.
For the expert formulator, these beads offer a way to stabilize and deliver Panax Ginseng, an ingredient known for its rich concentration of ginsenosides. These compounds provide potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits, helping to protect skin from environmental stressors and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Formulation Tips
Working with Starphere beads is straightforward, but a few key tips will ensure success.
- Usage Rate: Use 0.5%–3%. Start around 1% for a noticeable visual effect; increase for denser appearance or higher active payload.
- When to Add: Always add during the cool-down phase below 40°C (104°F). Adding to a hot mixture can dissolve the starch-based beads prematurely.
- Mixing: Disperse with slow, gentle stirring to avoid breaking the beads before use; avoid high-shear mixing.
- Suspension: Ensure adequate viscosity to keep beads suspended. Gelling/thickening systems like xanthan gum or carbomer-based gels work well.
Key Performance Benefits
- Targeted Active Delivery: Protects Red Ginseng extract within the bead and releases it on application for maximum potency.
- Visible Appeal & Storytelling: Golden-tan beads provide a premium look and clearly signal active content and energizing benefits.
- Enhanced Sensory Experience: Satisfying “burst” on rub-in creates a memorable, multi-sensory application.
- Potent Antioxidant Power: Delivers Panax Ginseng, known for antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging support.
- Natural & Biodegradable: Corn-starch beads break down naturally; no microplastic residue.
- Versatile Application: 425–600 μm size works across serums, lotions, gels, and masks; collapses smoothly without grit.
