Advantage™ Revive polymer for dry shampoo formulation is a patent-pending solution that delivers superior cleaning with improved sebum removal while leaving visibly less to no residue on the hair. Advantage™ Revive polymer improves the manageability of hair while maintaining its luster, matching the color vibrancy and shine of freshly washed hair.
Many commercial formulas, regardless of price point, are based on similar starch-based technologies that many consumers perceive to leave the hair looking lifeless, dull, less refreshed, and in some cases just as greasy. Advantage™ Revive polymer is formulation flexible – up to 50% less than that of usual dosage levels, and can be used in a variety of formats.
Key benefits include effective removal of sebum at the root for visibly cleaner hair with less residue, maintained level of colour, shine and manageability of freshly washer hair, and improved sustainability footprint of dry shampoos by delivering improved performance at lower use levels. view less

Antaron™ Sensory is a water dispersible polymer that has unique hydrophobic characteristics and is capable of forming a mesh over the skin. The mesh film imparts great water resistance and superior sensory feel when the formulation dries. In sun care formulas and foundations with high oil content, this mesh film former gives great water and wear resistance while reducing the heavy feel of such formulations. Ganex Sensory is also used as a co-emulsifier in a variety of skin care formulations to impart great aesthetics. Consumer data generated on formulations with this film former confirmed the breakthrough sensory feel it imparts on formulations with and without sun filters. Antaron™ Sensory polymer is provided under the name of Ganex Sensory polymer in North America. view less
