Cosmetic Raw Materials & Soap Making Ingredients in Kenya

Cosmetic Bases and Specialty Personal Care Chemicals

Modern cosmetic consumers demand personal care products that deliver luxurious textures, high performance, and skin-safe properties. Achieving these results requires a meticulous selection of raw materials. Yashar'el Chemicals Ltd supplies standard cosmetic bases, surfactants, emollients, and texturizers that form the foundation of soaps, lotions, creams, shampoos, and conditioners.

Emulsifiers and Thickening Agents

Creating stable oil-in-water emulsions is the key to formulation success. We supply thickeners and emulsifiers—such as Stearic Acid (Triple Pressed) and Cetyl Alcohol—which stabilize lotions, provide a smooth sensory feel, and prevent product separation under varying temperatures.

Foaming Agents and Surfactants

For shampoos, body washes, and hand soaps, rich foam and deep cleansing are essential. We distribute high-quality surfactant bases (like Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate - SLES) and foam boosters (like Cocamide DEA) that offer superior cleansing while remaining gentle on the skin.
