DRY-FLO® PURE starch is a unique, hydrophobically modified natural polymer. It can be used as a talc replacement in body powders adsorbing moisture without caking. In color cosmetics, DRY-FLO® PURE starch can be incorporated into liquid or powdered makeup to improve aesthetics of the formulas and to adsorb excess oil from the skin. The most distinctive property of DRY-FLO® PURE starch is its ability to mitigate greasiness produced by oils and occlusive agents used in lotions, creams, and ointments. In both aqueous and anhydrous products for skin care DRY-FLO® PURE starch reduces the perceived oiliness of formulations, leaving a soft, dry, and matte finish on the skin. The grade in Europe is DRY-FLO® PLUS starch (28-1160).
