The webinar’s agenda covers the sustainable nature of peas, the water-resistance and tightening benefits of Beauté by Roquette® ST 730 in makeup and skincare, and the hair care advantages of Beauté by Roquette® ST 720.
Sustainable supply
Roquette, a global player in the industry, emphasizes its commitment to sustainability through a circular biorefining model that ensures 100% raw material valorization. This approach minimizes waste and maximizes the use of all components of raw materials, aligning with the growing consumer demand for sustainable and natural cosmetic products. The company’s expertise in plant-based ingredients and its dedication to health, nutrition, and French cosmetics culture underpin its innovative solutions.
The presentation highlights the advantages of yellow peas, a sustainable crop that requires less water and nitrogen fertilizer and contributes to soil health. Roquette’s local pea agri-chain of excellence ensures full traceability, allergen control, and the use of certified seeds, making it a reliable and an environmentally friendly resource. The company valorizes 100% of the pea grain, utilizing it in food, pharma, industry, and cosmetics.
For makeup and skincare
Beauté by Roquette® ST 730, a biodegradable film former derived from pea starch, offers significant benefits for makeup and skincare. It provides water resistance and a tightening effect, making it ideal for long-lasting makeup applications.
Consumer studies in the UK, China, and Italy show a strong preference for makeup products with long-lasting benefits. Beauté by Roquette® ST 730 outperforms both synthetic and naturally derived alternatives like PVP and Pullulan in water resistance tests, demonstrating its efficacy in various conditions, including tap water, saline water, and chlorine water.
In skincare, Beauté by Roquette® ST 730 has shown to reduce fine lines and wrinkles by 8% within three minutes of application. This tightening effect meets consumer demand for visible results in anti-wrinkle products, particularly in eye care. The product’s performance was validated through subjective evaluations, with a significant percentage of users reporting smoother skin and diminished fine lines and wrinkles.
In haircare
Beauté by Roquette® ST 720, another pea-based film former, is designed for hair care applications. The increasing consumer demand for hair treatments is driven by the desire for healthy, well-groomed hair, which is seen as a reflection of self-confidence and professionalism. Conversely, poorly maintained hair can create an impression of carelessness, prompting consumers to seek various methods to improve hair quality.
In comparative studies, Beauté by Roquette® ST 720 has demonstrated long-lasting curl retention, anti-frizz effects, and heat protection. Tests show that it performs better than PVP in maintaining curls and resisting humidity, making it an excellent choice for curly hair. Additionally, it provides significant protection against heat-induced protein oxidation in hair, outperforming untreated hair in maintaining protein integrity under stress.
The presentation will conclude with technical information and formulation guidelines for both Beauté by Roquette® ST 730 and ST 720. These products are positioned as sustainable, high-performance alternatives to synthetic film formers, offering multiple benefits for makeup, skincare, and hair care applications. Roquette’s commitment to innovation and sustainability is evident in its development of these pea-based ingredients, which cater to the growing consumer demand for natural and effective beauty solutions.
