Description

Emulsifier Bella – Anionic O/W Emulsifier

Emulsifier Bella is a classic emulsifier used for decades in the industry, featuring a very well-documented safety and performance profile. It is used to create creamy emulsions. It functions as an excellent texturizing agent and consistency factor, providing creams with good stability and a sensory profile of comfort, softness, and optimal absorption.

It provides a powdery, matte feel on the skin, distinct from the butterier finish of non-ionic emulsifiers. This is perhaps the most appreciated feature for formulators seeking a creamy product that does not leave a greasy feel.


Ingredients (INCI): Glyceryl Stearate SE.


Technical Characteristics

  • Appearance: Cream-white granular powder, neutral odor.
  • Emulsifier Type: Anionic, suitable for Oil-in-Water (O/W) creams, HLB ~18.
  • Optimal pH Range: pH 6.5 - 8.0
  • General Dosage: 3% - 8%
  • Quality: 100% natural origin product, approved for natural and bio cosmetics.

Main Properties

  • Self-Emulsifying: Does not require mandatory pairing with secondary emulsifiers to create a stable O/W emulsion.
  • Structuring: Gives emulsions an aesthetically pleasing, glossy white appearance, an elegant texture, and excellent spreadability.
  • Emollient, Protective: Leaves a fine, non-occlusive film on the skin that prevents dehydration and protects the skin barrier.
  • Sensory Feel: Can form medium or rich creams that do not leave a greasy feel, providing a powdery and matte touch on the skin, unlike the butterier finish of creams made with non-ionic emulsifiers.

Applications

  • Moisturizing or nourishing facial creams for all skin types.
  • Moisturizing body creams or emulsified body butters, hand creams.
  • Grooming products for men, after-shave balms.
  • Cleansing creams, skin care creams for sensitive skin.

Formulation Guide

  • Procedure: Bella Emulsifier is incorporated into the oil phase of the formulation with heating. 
  • Phase Ratio: Works well with an oil phase between 10% and 30%.
  • Working pH: Requires an aqueous phase pH of approximately 6.5-7 or higher to function properly. At a pH below 6, its emulsifying capacity drops significantly.
  • Compatibility: Pairs well with fatty alcohols (cetyl alcohol, cetearyl alcohol), plant butters, and non-ionic co-emulsifiers for richer textures and enhanced stability. It can also be combined with thickeners such as natural gums or polymers compatible with anionic systems.
  • Stability: Avoid dropping the pH of the finished product below 6. Electrolytes, such as Aloe Vera, Sodium Lactate, or Sodium PCA, can cause destabilization, leading to the liquefaction of the cream.

Safety in Use and Storage

Safety Profile: Safe ingredient with good skin tolerance.
Precautions: For external cosmetic use only. 
Storage: Keep in a closed container, in a dry and cool place, protected from light.

It is ideal for a face moisturizer formula. I use it alongside moisturizing co-emulsifier in more fluid formulations.

I use this emulsifier in the preparation of Nourishing Hand Cream with ceramides, urea, lanolin. It is exactly what I need to obtain a cream with a pleasant texture on application, which absorbs quickly and leaves the skin velvety soft.

An emulsifier that does not separate from the rest of the ingredients used to make a cream. I would have liked it to dissolve more easily. It absorbs into the skin very quickly. Gives creams a light and lush texture.

I recommend (especially for beginners) to buy this emulsifier in 500 gr. Because it can be used in a very wide range of products, creating lighter or denser emulsions, it is more cost-effective the 500 Gr version. The texture of the emulsion is smooth, absorbs easily into the skin and leaves no sticky film behind.

A very good emulsifier. I often use it in the preparation of light creams for face and body due to the fluid, non-greasy texture I get and the fact that it helps the cream absorb more quickly into the skin. It generally works very well and easily with this emulsifier!
