BASF’s Personal Care business recently succeeded in obtaining a new cosmetic ingredient notification for Symbiocell®, which can be commercialized as a cosmetic ingredient with BASF’s authorization in China. A unique active ingredient, Symbiocell® (INCI: Water (and) Butylene Glycol (and) Cestrum Latifolium Leaf Extract (and) Xanthan Gum (and) Propanediol (and) Caprylyl Glycol), is proven through in vitro tests to support healthy levels of the basal expression of CD86 in skin dendritic cells. It effectively soothes sensitive skin and potentially excessive cutaneous reactions.
