Our natural ingredient, Satiagel VPC 614, is a unique KAPPA carrageenan, a naturally high gelling agent that can produce brittle solid gels when combined with salt. Depending on the type and concentration of salt used, you can create gels ranging from semi-solid to solid (similar to Jell-OTM). Due to the dehydrating effect when used with high concentrations of salt alone, only solid gel masks can be used. Carrageenan is a sulfate polysaccharide with various applications depending on its grade: oral care, hair care, film formation, skin care, emulsion stabilization, and viscosity control. Thanks to the technical expertise of Cargill, the discovery of how to combine it with other carrageenans has opened up a new world of textures.
