What Is Olivem 1000?
Olivem 1000 is a high-performance PEG-free, plant-derived non-ionic self-emulsifier designed for oil-in-water(O/W) cosmetic systems. Synthesized from olive-oil-based fatty acids combined with cetearyl alcohol and sorbitan, it can generate biomimetic liquid-crystal lamellar structures that mimic human skin stratum corneum lipid bilayer.
Unlike traditional synthetic emulsifiers, Olivem 1000 delivers both stable emulsifying capacity and skin-repair moisturizing benefits. It can be used as the sole primary emulsifier without mandatory co-emulsifier addition, producing silky non-soapy cream and lotion texture. It exhibits excellent compatibility with plant oils, natural butters, plant extracts and many cosmetic actives. Aogubio supplies bulk high-purity Olivem 1000, providing free testing samples, full qualification documents and global one-stop shipping service for natural & organic cosmetic manufacturers.
Different from general composite emulsified wax, Olivem 1000’s liquid-crystal structure enhances skin affinity and barrier-support performance, making it the preferred emulsifier for sensitive-skin and Ecocert-certified organic skincare lines.
Core Advantages Of Our Olivem 1000
PEG-Free Natural Plant-Derived Formula
Produced from olive-oil raw material, zero PEG, non-ethoxylated, conforms to COSMOS / Ecocert natural cosmetic standards. Low impurity content, slight characteristic wax-olive odor, uniform flake shape for easy formula handling.
Biomimetic Liquid-Crystal Emulsifying Feature
Forms skin-like lamellar liquid-crystal network inside finished cream/lotion. Not only stabilizes oil-water phases, but also mimics skin natural lipid arrangement to reinforce skin barrier, bringing genuine skin-nourishing properties beyond simple emulsification.
Excellent Self-Emulsifying Stability
Can act as sole O/W primary emulsifier; 5% dosage can stabilize up to 20% oil-phase content. Emulsion systems resist freeze-thaw cycles and centrifugal stress, hardly generate phase separation, oil floating or cracking during long-term shelf storage, fit for industrial mass-scale production.
Ultra-Mild & High Skin Compatibility
Hypo-allergenic non-ionic structure, low skin-irritation risk. Safe for sensitive-skin, reactive skin, baby skincare and post-sun soothing formulas. Finished products have no soapy, tight after-use feeling.
Broad-Range Formula Compatibility
Stable within pH 4.5-8.0, compatible with vegetable oils, mineral oil, partial silicones, alpha-hydroxy acids, DHA, panthenol and most preservative systems. Works cooperatively with mango butter, shea butter, cetearyl alcohol and other cosmetic waxes for diversified texture adjustment.
Stable Batch Quality & Flexible Supply
Strict batch-to-batch consistency. Support free sample testing, small-batch trial production and large-volume bulk order customization.
How Olivem 1000 Works In Formulation
After fully melted in heated oil-phase and homogenized with hot water-phase, Olivem 1000 assembles ordered liquid-crystal lamellar structure inside O/W emulsion. This special network wraps oil droplets to prevent oil-water separation, realizing stable cream and lotion systems.
When applied onto skin, the liquid-crystal lipid structure closely matches stratum corneum lipid composition. It helps replenish skin surface lipid deficiency, reduce transepidermal water loss, relieve dry tightness and soothe mild skin irritation. It improves active-ingredient delivery efficiency, keeps skin soft and smooth without heavy greasy residue.

Formulation Guide: Dosage, Solubility & Matching Tips
Recommended dosage: 1.5%-5% of total formula weight; 1.5-3% for lightweight body lotion; 3-5% for rich facial cream when used as sole primary emulsifier. For high-oil-phase formulas, add 0.5-2% co-emulsifier for extra stability.
Solubility: Oil-soluble waxy solid, must be completely melted in oil-phase at 70℃-75℃; mix with water-phase heated to equal temperature under stirring / homogenization; insoluble in cold water.
Recommended matching ingredients: Perfectly compatible with mango butter, shea butter, cetearyl alcohol, jojoba oil, squalane, vitamin E, panthenol, glycerin and natural plant extracts.
Formulation Notes:
- Melting temperature should reach 70-75℃; incomplete melting will produce granular gritty texture.
- Both oil-phase and water-phase should maintain similar temperature before mixing.
- Proper homogenization time is required to form complete liquid-crystal structure; slow cooling after homogenization.
- Avoid long-term over-heating above 80℃ which may damage liquid-crystal forming performance.
- Seal and store under cool-dry condition, avoid high-temperature caking and moisture absorption.
