To impart good emulsion, suspension control, improved film-build, eliminate syneresis, reduce separation and settlement, create novel viscosity effects and to design the right performance in w/o, o/w, single phase, solid or liquid systems, viscosity control agents are needed.
For applications such as Blushers & Foundations the best flow control agents are:
