New deodorant active ingredients
Introduction
The deodorant market has undergone a transformation in recent years. Consumers are increasingly seeking natural, effective and sustainable solutions for odour control. In this article, we will introduce new deodorant active ingredients that are not only effective but also environmentally friendly. We will examine the properties and efficacy data of these new deodorant active ingredients in detail.
New deodorant active ingredients: Velsan CGE
Velsan® CGE is a 100% renewable source active ingredient that serves as a deodorant and preservative enhancer. Velsan CGE is characterised by its broad pH stability and high purity (at least 99%). This active ingredient offers excellent control of body odour and can be used in various deodorant formats.
Efficacy data:
- Broad antimicrobial spectrum: Velsan® CGE shows effective inhibition of bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. Particularly noteworthy is the efficacy against odour-causing bacteria such as Corynebacterium jeikeium and Corynebacterium xerosis.
- Synergistic effects: In combination with CareMag™ D, Velsan® CGE shows a significant reduction of odour-causing bacteria by more than 4 log levels after 48 hours.
New deodorant active ingredients: CareMag D
CareMag™ D is a novel active ingredient consisting of magnesium hydroxide and magnesium carbonate hydroxide. This active ingredient is natural, safe and extremely effective in controlling body odour. CareMag™ D absorbs both sweat and sebum, resulting in long-lasting odour control.
Efficacy data:
- Long-lasting odour control: In a study with 25 volunteers, CareMag™ D showed a reduction in underarm odour of 42% after 24 hours and 67% after 8 hours.
- Antimicrobial effect: CareMag™ D significantly reduces the growth of odour-causing bacteria such as Staphylococcus hominis and Corynebacterium tuberculostearicum.
New deodorant active ingredients: Verochic
Verochic® is an effective deodorant active ingredient derived from shikimic acid. Shikimic acid has antimicrobial and antioxidant properties and is known for its ability to inhibit odour-causing enzymes.
Efficacy data:
- Exfoliating and antimicrobial properties: Verochic® shows a stronger and gentler exfoliating effect than glycolic acid and inhibits the growth of Propionibacterium acnes with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) between 1% and 2%.
- Lipase inhibition: Verochic® inhibits lipase activity and reduces the production of free fatty acids, which are responsible for unpleasant odours, by up to 98%.
New deodorant active ingredients: sodium bicarbonate
Sodium bicarbonate, also known as baking soda, is a natural active ingredient used in many deodorant formulations. It neutralises odours by regulating the pH, thus inhibiting the growth of odour-causing bacteria.
Efficacy data:
- Effective odour neutralisation: Sodium bicarbonate prevents odours from becoming acidic and offers an effective alternative to aluminium and other antiperspirants.
- Alkaline pH buffer: It neutralises plaque acids and promotes a healthy oral environment, which underlines its versatility in various care products.
New deodorant active ingredients: SymDeo B125
SymDeo B125 is an innovative deodorant active ingredient that has been developed to provide long-lasting odour control while also caring for the skin. SymDeo B125 is particularly effective against Gram-positive bacteria, which are the main cause of body odour.
Efficacy data:
- Antimicrobial efficacy: SymDeo B125 shows strong inhibition of odour-causing bacteria such as Corynebacterium spp. and Staphylococcus spp. It has been shown to reduce bacterial activity by up to 99.9%.
- Long-lasting protection: In clinical studies, SymDeo B125 showed a reduction in body odour for up to 48 hours after application.
- Skin compatibility: SymDeo® B125 is skin-friendly and is therefore particularly suitable for sensitive skin types.
