They highlight its ability to bridge the gap between natural ingredients and performance. While functioning as a texturizing agent, Solagum X+ also demonstrates emotional benefits, such as comfort and revitalization. We also discuss Seppic’s new Cosmos Beauty Odyssey Collection, which merges nutricosmetics and sensory experiences to meet the growing demand for holistic beauty solutions.
This is Sabina Waldeck for Personal care insights at In Cosmetics Global 2026, joined by Andrea Nigon, marketing and digital manager, and Lorraine Denois, senior market and digital manager at SEPEC.
Welcome.
So you have launched Sologum X Plus.
Can you tell me about it and how it stands out as a solution for formulators seeking natural origin and high performance texture in personal care products?
Yeah, I would be happy.
Solagum X is the new generation of polysaccharide.
It is a 100 natural origin cross linked polysaccharide which we have developed thanks to our patented and sustainable cross-linking technology, but what makes it stand out, it is really that it has multifunctional properties and that it bridges the gap between naturality and performance at the same time.
So it acts simultaneously as a high performance texturizing agent.
Biology modifier 4 times greater than Xonan gum and that stabilizes very complex formulations, emulsions with a very low dosage, but it is also an original texturizing agent because it allows you to have either frosted or smooth texture according to its dosage and what makes it really a unique solution it is that it has demonstrated emotional benefits.
Brings a feeling of comfort, reassuring softness, but also a revitalizing effect.
And last but not least, it is also a moisturizing agent with the immediate and long-term benefits up to 24 hours.
And for my next question, can you explain how your Cosmos beauty Odyssey collection combines nutri cosmetics and sensory experiences to meet the demand for holistic beauty?
Yes, of course.
Each year we take a strong theme, and this year it's the cosmos.
We have so many inspirations like the Apollo mission, for example, and so the idea beyond this theme was really to escape our consumers and customers with proposing some illustrative formula with of course benefits for.
But as as we see this demand increasing in and out duo, so with neutral cosmetic formulas, and so we have two in and out duos this year, and the idea is really to propose new experience through the texture, through the active, because we know that consumers want high efficacy as.
And so with in and out duos.
And what role does your ingredient sagashous play in addressing age-related skin concerns, and how does it support anti-sagging formulations?
So we have sagaseous in this formula we present on the Textureva, which is an anti-aging cream, as we have this theme of Cosmos.
It was obvious to have an anti-sagging.
Extract, so sagaseous, which is a very strong active with many anti-aging claims, and so we combine it with two other actives in this formula one for exposome protection because we know that protection is really booming as , even in anti-aging products, and with Celtosome arangium, which has new data as as an anti-wrinkle filler.
And moving on to Monosov L, how does it contribute to the creation of ultra fluid natural emulsions and products like the Sica Milky moisturizing toner?
So this illustrative formula answers to the big trend we see all around the world and that all our customers are asking for, which are the milky toners.
Monteuve L is a natural emulsifier that allows us to create very strong texture even when they are very fluid thanks to the crystal liquid structure that they achieve and as they have moisturizing benefits, so it's really a plus in this formula.
And my last question is, with increasing consumer demand for multifunctional and effective textures, how does SEI's innovation and natural ology modifiers align with these trends?
Yeah, so aligns with these trends because we develop natural origin polymers that are already highly performing and that are performing, but without compromising the naturality or the efficacy and the sensority of the formulation.
Perfect.
And thank you for joining Personal Care Insights.
Thank you very much.
