Upsalite® is formulated into makeup, deodorant, high-performance sports products, hair care and fragrance. Here is what it does in each category — and the sub-categories where formulators use it.
Across foundation, concealer, highlighter, primer, setting spray and setting powder, Upsalite® absorbs sebum on contact and keeps absorbing through the day — on average 1.2 g of oil per gram of powder. Its light-scattering pore structure gives a true soft-focus effect, with no shimmer and no flashback.
Upsalite® keeps skin dry by absorbing sweat and odour-trapping moisture — and unlike talc, it absorbs sweat and oil at the same time.
In anti-chafe sticks, grip products and chamois creams, Upsalite® manages sweat, oil and friction in one material — staying dry under load.
Upsalite® absorbs scalp sebum in minutes — reaching saturation in about 5 minutes where silica needs an hour — and works in both aerosol and powder formats.
Upsalite®’s pore network loads and gradually releases fragrance, extending scent duration as a carrier in powder and stick formats.
