Evicare® lipotex is a 100% natural and non-palm derived oil thickener. It can increase the viscosity of liquid oils, converting them to soft fluid paste or even totally solid textures. It works with most vegetable oils or ester oils and makes application of oil phases such as massage oils neat & clean. The solid butters easily produced with Evicare® lipotex softly melt on the skin. It is palm oil free and derived from rapeseed and/or sunflower.
