Clean Beauty with Citropol®

Clean Beauty means elegance in every respect: from the selection of sustainable raw materials, to the design and use of high-functionality and high-performing ingredients, and the benign reintegration into the biosphere post-use. This philosophy is beautifully encapsulated in P2’s Citropol® technology.

Citropol® 1A

Citropol® 1A is a low molecular-weight liquid polymer that is made from terpenes derived from the forest. Citropol® 1A imparts distinct lubricating properties in skin-care and hair-care formulations.

Even in concentrations as low as 1%, the result is a slippery, silky formulation. Citropol® 1A is a valuable component in a range of applications in the beauty industry: cosmetics, skin care, hair care, fragrance, deodorants, and moisturizers.
