Ingredients for Lightweight Sunscreen Texture

To create a lightweight, easily absorbed sunscreen texture similar to Banana Boat, you need to select appropriate emulsifiers and emollients.

Key ingredients that can help achieve this texture include:

• Velvet Cream Maker™: This is an emulsifier that helps create a matte, velvet, and light texture. It reduces shine and is compatible with sunscreens, contributing to a smooth, light feel.
• Easy Cream Maker™: This acts as an emulsifier and thickener. While it creates a cream texture, it might feel slightly heavier or more "gooey" compared to other options and has limitations with certain ingredients.
• LipidSoft™ B: An emollient commonly used in sunscreens. It helps dissolve sunscreen filters, spreads easily, dries quickly, and provides a smooth, light touch without feeling sticky or clogging pores.
• LipidSoft™ SPF: Another emollient ester designed to help dissolve chemical sunscreens while ensuring the formula is not sticky on the skin.
• LipidSoft™ Palm: An emollient that contributes to lightweight formulas and helps dissolve some sunscreen ingredients. However, using it in high amounts might clog pores for some skin types.

By carefully selecting and combining these types of ingredients, particularly the right emulsifier like Velvet Cream Maker™ for the base texture and emollients like LipidSoft™ B or LipidSoft™ SPF for the light, non-greasy feel, you can formulate a sunscreen with a desirable lightweight and easily absorbed texture.
