Why this grade
Standard xanthan turns serums cloudy and strings on application. Our clear grade is milled to 200 mesh with transparency-index testing per batch — gels that stay glass-clear in the bottle and shear-thin on the skin.
Fermentation-derived and certified for personal care with documented viscosity curves at 0.5% and 1.0% in water. No pseudoplastic surprises between lots; the rheology band is tight enough to serialize.
Key benefits
- 200-mesh milling with per-batch transparency index
- Viscosity curves at 0.5% / 1.0% printed on COA
- Shear-thinning rheology — elegant application, stable shelf
- Electrolyte and ethanol tolerant for essence formats
Technical specification
Ingredient profile
This is the clear-grade xanthan gum formulators reach for when the gel has to look clean: a 200-mesh, 98%-pass powder with a transparency index reported per lot. The measured transparency is what separates a premium clear gel from a cloudy one at the point of sale.
Produced by in-house fermentation, it gives full control over viscosity and clarity batch to batch. Typical use is 0.1–1% depending on target rheology, with hydration and dispersion guidance in the technical data sheet.
It is vegan and allergen-free, and every lot ships with viscosity, transparency and full micro results on the batch COA. It suspends actives like niacinamide and bakuchiol without hiding them.
