Botaneco's proprietary Hydresia and Hydresia(TM) G2 products are natural emulsifiers comprised of oleosomes, natural oil carrying structures derived from safflower seeds. Oleosomes are nature's warehouse, or storage facility, for the emollient oils, antioxidants and natural moisture barriers that serve to keep the skin soft, supple and young looking. Using a proprietary non-solvent aqueous extraction process, these oleosomes are isolated from the seed fully intact, and when used in skin care applications can provide lasting protection to the skin. Hydresia(TM) and Hydresia(TM) G2 are natural, renewable replacements for hydrocarbon derived petrolatum, mineral oil and non-ionic surfactants.
