We are pioneering the transition to sustainable personal care with 100% bio-based, biodegradable polyglutamic acid biopolymers. Produced through the fermentation of renewable, vegetable-based biomass, our ingredients help solve greenhouse gas emissions and microplastic pollution without compromising clinical efficacy.

A linear polyglutamic acid biopolymer that provides best-in-class moisture capture and binds up to 1,000 times its weight in water to reduce transepidermal water loss.
Leaves a smooth, non-tacky skin feel and achieves exceptional moisturizing performance at low 1-3% usage levels.
Upregulates hyaluronic acid synthase (HAS-1/2/3) to boost the skin's own HA production while inhibiting hyaluronidase, making it an ideal partner for HA-based actives.
Features a molecular weight of 300,000-600,000 Daltons and is over 90% biodegradable in 28 days.
A crosslinked polyglutamic acid polymer offering unprecedented moisture control, mechanical strength, and suspension.
Delivers shear-thinning and flow performance on par with synthetic polyacrylates while providing a light, non-sticky texture.
Recommended for use in aqueous formulations at a typical inclusion level of 0.5-2%, depending on the desired viscosity.
100% biobased, microplastic-free, preservative-free, and not animal tested.
Our USDA-certified biobased, cruelty-free ingredients are designed for easy drop-in integration. Request a sample today to test AzuraBase™ and AzuraGel™ in your own applications.
