🎥 REPLAY AVAILABLE – EstoLight-1E: Performance of a bio-based dispersant for pigmented cosmetics

“Performance evaluation of EstoLight-1E – a biobased dispersant and stabilizer for pigmented cosmetics”

Didier Pintori, Process Development Engineer at ITERG, presented the results of the performance evaluation of EstoLight-1E, our bio-based dispersant designed for pigmented cosmetic formulations, at the Lipids & Cosmetics Congress in Bordeaux.

 EstoLightarebio-based polymersderived from vegetable oils, patented by ITERG. These natural products effectively disperse mineral fillers (pigments, pearlescent pigments, dyes, glitter, particles), while ensuring uniform mixing and good sensory properties.

Reminder: The 5th edition of the Lipids & Cosmetics Congress was held in Bordeaux on January 28 and 29, 2026. This event was organized by Cosmetic Valley, with the support of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Region and ADI Nouvelle-Aquitaine, and in partnership with ITERG, CVA, the University of Bordeaux, and SFC.

Four topics, focusing on lipids and their applications, were discussed: 

– Ingredients and raw materials supply
– Processes & development
– Formulation & sensory attributes
– Lipids & biological properties
