Cosmetic Ingredients Silica Powder SPHESTA SLX10

SPHESTA® SLX-10 is a high-performance silica powder developed by Luxon using its proprietary manufacturing technology. Unlike conventional silica products, SLX-10 offers exceptional sensory properties, high oil absorption capability, and outstanding formulation compatibility while maintaining a clean and silky texture.

One of the key advantages of SPHESTA® SLX-10 is its exceptionally high BET surface area, which is significantly higher than that of standard silica powders. Despite its high surface area, the product does not contain nano-sized particles, making it easier to formulate while providing a smooth and elegant skin feel.

The optimized pore structure and small pore size of SLX-10 contribute to excellent transparency when dispersed in oil-based systems. This characteristic allows formulators to create visually appealing products without unwanted whitening or opacity. The powder delivers a soft-focus effect, enhances sensory performance, and helps improve the spreadability of cosmetic formulations.

SPHESTA® SLX-10 is an advanced silica solution designed for modern cosmetic formulations requiring superior sensory performance, transparency, and oil management. It is particularly suitable for loose powders and sun sticks where smooth application, lightweight feel, and elegant finish are essential.
