Why oxidation protection matters

Oxidation is the quiet spoiler in cosmetic formulations – turning freshness into off-notes, shifting color, and weakening stability over time, especially in systems rich in vegetable oils and sensitive actives. And because scent shapes perception and emotional connection, even subtle oxidation-driven changes can instantly affect how a product is experienced and trusted.

The quest for modern oxidation protection solutions

As “natural” concepts and using vegetable oils become the new normal, oxidation risk rises – while classic synthetic antioxidants lose acceptance and some common natural alternatives can bring trade-offs like discoloration, variable performance, or tricky processing. That’s why formulators need a new generation of reliable, natural-based, easy-to-use oxidation protection – designed to protect the formula and support performance beyond the bottle.


This is where INVEILOX® begins.

INVEILOX® COProtect MB is inspired by how plants naturally protect their lipids: science translates these evolution‑proven defense strategies into one formulation-ready system. It combines a synergistic trio – carnosic acid, γ‑oryzanol, and phytosterols – to deliver robust oxidation protection without adding complexity to your process.
