Adina adds Lipo Chemicals' ingredient to portfolio

Adina Cosmetic Ingredients has secured UK distribution of Lipo VI 40/60; an exfoliating ingredient from US-based company, Lipo Chemicals.

Released earlier this year, the ingredient is currently distributed throughout Europe, but Adina is the only UK distributor.

Lipo VI 40/60 is the ground material from the seeds of the Ecuadorian Ivory Palm Phytelephas aequatorialis. Commonly known as tagua nuts or vegetable ivory, it is an ecologically harvested, sustainable rainforest product.

Suitable for both body and facial exfoliating creams, gels, liquids and soaps, Lipo VI 40/60 offers moderate to hard abrasiveness.
