Sepilift DPHP: Your Advanced Solution for Youthful, Hydrated Skin

Introducing Sepilift DPHP (Dipalmitoyl Hydroxyproline), a cutting-edge anti-aging and moisturizing active ingredient expertly crafted in France. This fine white powder is a game-changer for formulators seeking to create high-performance skincare products. As a fat-soluble compound, it seamlessly integrates into the oil phase of your formulations, offering unparalleled benefits for wrinkle reduction, skin firming, and deep hydration. With a wide range of recommended inclusion rates, Sepilift DPHP is your secret weapon for truly transformative cosmetic results.

Description and Key Features

Sepilift DPHP is a lipoamino acid, a bio-vectorized form of hydroxyproline, a key amino acid naturally present in collagen. This innovative ingredient works to mimic the skin's natural collagen synthesis processes, providing a powerful triple-action approach to anti-aging:

• Wrinkle Correction: It actively stimulates the synthesis of collagen fibers, helping to restructure the skin's supporting tissues. This leads to a noticeable reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improving skin smoothness and firmness.
• Long-Lasting Hydration: Sepilift DPHP possesses excellent moisturizing properties. It forms a protective barrier on the skin's surface, helping to prevent transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and maintain optimal hydration levels, resulting in plumper, more supple skin.
• Antioxidant Protection: It acts as a free radical scavenger, protecting the skin from environmental damage that contributes to premature aging.

As a white powder, Sepilift DPHP is stable and easy to handle. Its crucial characteristic is its solubility in the oil phase of formulations, meaning it must be introduced into the fatty components of your product. It is insoluble in water and alcohol, which is important to consider during formulation. This French-produced active is a testament to advanced cosmetic science, delivering reliable and visible results.

Versatile Applications and Usage Areas in Cosmetics

The multifaceted benefits of Sepilift DPHP make it an indispensable ingredient for a broad spectrum of cosmetic formulations, particularly those targeting anti-aging, hydration, and skin firmness:

• Anti-Wrinkle Serums & Creams (4-5% inclusion):
  • Intensive Treatment: Ideal for highly concentrated serums and rich creams designed to visibly reduce the depth and appearance of wrinkles, particularly on the face, neck, and décolleté.
  • Firming Solutions: Enhances skin elasticity and firmness, providing a lifting effect for mature skin.
• Body Care & Anti-Cellulite Series (4-5% inclusion):
  • Skin Firming Body Lotions: Improves the tone and elasticity of body skin, making it an excellent addition to firming lotions and creams.
  • Anti-Cellulite Treatments: While not a direct cellulite cure, its ability to improve skin texture and firmness can complement anti-cellulite formulations by enhancing skin smoothness.
• Moisturizing Cosmetics (1.5-2% inclusion):
  • Daily Hydrators: Elevates the efficacy of everyday moisturizers, providing deep, long-lasting hydration for all skin types, including dry and dehydrated skin.
  • Lip Care Products: Excellent for use in lip balms, serums, and treatments to smooth fine lines around the lips and keep them supple and hydrated.
• Gels, Fluids, & Aftershave Lotions (1% inclusion):
  • Lightweight Anti-Aging: Incorporate into lighter textures for oil-free or low-oil formulations that still deliver potent anti-aging and moisturizing benefits.
  • Soothing & Hydrating Aftershave: Provides anti-aging and moisturizing benefits to skin after shaving, helping to soothe and protect.
• Masks for Smoothing Wrinkles (2.5-3% inclusion):
  • Targeted Treatment: Perfect for rinse-off or leave-on masks that provide an intensive boost to skin smoothness and elasticity, visibly reducing the appearance of wrinkles with consistent use.
• Mists, Toners, & Micellar Water (0.5% inclusion):
  • Subtle Anti-Aging & Hydration: While it requires solubilization in a tiny amount of oil, its low inclusion rate allows for the introduction of its benefits into mostly aqueous formulations, offering a light layer of hydration and protection. This typically requires a solubilizer or a very small amount of oil to carry it.

Important Note on Formulation: Sepilift DPHP must be added to the oil phase of your formulation. For water-based products like mists or micellar water, you would need to pre-disperse it in a very small amount of carrier oil or a suitable solubilizer before integrating it into the main aqueous phase.

With worldwide shipping available, Sepilift DPHP offers a premium, high-performance ingredient that can transform your cosmetic formulations into cutting-edge skincare solutions, delivering visible results and enhancing customer satisfaction.

Cosmetic Recipe: "Youthful Radiance" Anti-Aging Facial Cream

Create a rich, deeply moisturizing, and wrinkle-smoothing facial cream, featuring Sepilift DPHP for comprehensive anti-aging benefits.

Instructions for Preparation:

1. Sanitization: Thoroughly sanitize all your equipment (beakers, stirring rods, containers) using isopropyl alcohol. Allow everything to air dry completely.
2. Prepare Phases:
   • Phase A (Oil Phase): In a heat-safe beaker, combine Sepilift DPHP, Emulsifying Wax NF, Cetearyl Alcohol, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, and Rosehip Oil.
   • Phase B (Water Phase): In a separate heat-safe beaker, combine Distilled Water and Glycerin.
3. Heat Phases: Place both Phase A and Phase B beakers in a double boiler or use hot plates to gently heat them. Heat both phases to approximately 70-75°C (158-167°F). Ensure that Sepilift DPHP is fully dissolved in the oil phase; stir well.
4. Emulsify: Once both phases reach the target temperature and all ingredients in Phase A are melted and dissolved, slowly pour the hot Phase A (oil phase) into the hot Phase B (water phase) while continuously stirring with a stick blender or whisk. Continue blending/whisking for 3-5 minutes until a uniform emulsion forms and the mixture starts to thicken.
5. Cool Down: Remove the beaker from heat. Continue stirring periodically (e.g., every 5-10 minutes) as the cream cools down. This helps the emulsion to set properly and prevents separation.
6. Add Cool Down Phase (Phase C): When the cream has cooled to below 40°C (104°F), add the Liquid Germall Plus, Vitamin E Oil, and your optional essential oil blend. Stir thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
7. pH Adjustment (Recommended): Check the pH of your cream. For facial creams, a pH between 5.0 and 6.0 is generally ideal for skin compatibility and preservative efficacy. Adjust if necessary using a diluted solution of lactic acid (to lower pH) or baking soda solution (to raise pH), adding drop by drop and rechecking.
8. Final Transfer: Transfer the finished cream into clean, sterilized jars or airless pump bottles.

Recommendations for Use:

• Optimal Integration: Always ensure Sepilift DPHP is fully dissolved in the heated oil phase of your formulation. Its insolubility in water and alcohol makes proper oil-phase incorporation critical for efficacy.
• Targeted Use: This cream is ideal for daily use, morning and night, on the face, neck, and décolleté to target wrinkles, improve firmness, and provide lasting hydration.
• Storage: Store the finished cream in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, to maintain its stability and efficacy. The use of a preservative is crucial for water-containing formulations.
• pH Stability: Maintain the recommended pH range for your final product to ensure the stability of the emulsion and the effectiveness of all active ingredients, including Sepilift DPHP.
• Consistency: The percentage of emulsifiers and thickeners can be adjusted to achieve your desired cream consistency, but ensure enough oil phase is present to fully dissolve the Sepilift DPHP.
• Texture and Feel: Products with Sepilift DPHP often have a smooth, luxurious feel on the skin, contributing to an enhanced user experience.
