Classic stabilisers often affect viscosity and alter the feel on the skin \u2013 not always in the way the formulators intend. This is exactly where Cosactive Eco Stab comes in: an innovative, natural raw material that provides stability without changing the consistency.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The advantages of Cosactive Eco Stab<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cosactive Eco Stab is a powder mixture of emulsifier and microcrystalline cellulose.

Solid particles accumulate at the interface between oil and water, stabilising the emulsion without the need for large quantities of traditional emulsifiers.
