Description
Versagel is a premium, crystal-clear, high-viscosity lip gloss base. It delivers exceptional shine, smooth slip, and rich texture while providing excellent suspension for pigments and shimmer. This vegan gel enhances moisturisation, improves stability in anhydrous formulations, and is widely used in modern colour cosmetics and lip care. Its compatibility with oils, esters, silicones, and emollients makes it an ideal base for high-performance gel-based beauty products.

How It Works
Polymer-gel technology forms a thick, stable, glossy gel matrix
Suspends pigments and shimmer evenly without settling
Creates a flexible, glossy film on skin/lips for enhanced wear
Adds shine, viscosity, and smoothness to anhydrous formulations
How to Add to Formulation
Use directly or heat gently to 70–80°C for easier mixing
Blend with oils, esters, silicones, fragrances, and flavour oils
Add heat-sensitive ingredients during cool-down
Homogenize pigments for uniform dispersion
Avoid adding water (not compatible)
Adjust texture using oils (softer) or waxes (firmer)
