Polyna-R
BIONAT CONSULT is presenting POLYNA R, a natural and safe alternative to Petrolatum.
POLYNA R is an anhydrous lipid with a high melting point, presenting a simular texture to Petrolatum.
Bionat Consult R&D team is continuously sourcing in the vegetable world to find alternatives to petrochemicals: POLYNA R has been developed using our innovative technologies based on olive oil and rice bran wax.
POLYNA R forms a lipophilic film on the skin and therefore has a very good waterproof effect.
When applied to the skin, it forms a light film allowing to maintain active ingredients on the skin, for example UVA and UVB filters, pigments, moisturizers, anti-cellulitis, and so on. This film will prevent the waterloss from the skin as well.
