The Versagel® SF is a silicone-free alternative for haircare based on Isoparaffin combined with Penreco’s patented gel technology. The result is a synthetic polymer blend technology that is shown to improve key properties in hair care applications, such as slip, shine and smoothness.
Versagel SF gel is highly compatible and can be used with the majority of the chemical ingredients used in cosmetic and personal care products. The gel creates a firm barrier for added moisturization, delivering superior stabilization and suspension properties. It is stable, thermally reversible and BHT free.
