What do mascara, nail polish, lipstick and foundation have in common? They allow to make the most of one’s appearance and to create unique looks, thus boosting the user’s confidence and self-esteem.
The Zschimmer & Schwarz portfolio includes the high-performance polymers of the SYNTRAN® line and the first-class emollients of the ZETEMOL line for perfect make-up formulations. ZETEMOL products consist mostly of ingredients derived from vegetable and other sustainable oils which create a velvety skin feel and thus allow for advanced make-up formulations. Our water-based acrylate SYNTRAN® polymers are developed for the purpose of improving the properties of the particular formula in a variety of ways. With this successful concept, we provide our customers and their products with a real, unique selling point.

The pre-neutralised SYNTRAN® products are easy to use because they are supplied in liquid form. Whether in mascara, eyeliner or eye shadow, our products ensure the desired properties, such as resistance against water and wear. Due to the transparency of the film, the authentic colours of the utilised pigments are reflected. In O/W or aqueous systems, our polymers and film formers display their properties ideally: in mascara, they provide the necessary adhesion during application and define the eyelashes perfectly without sticking to them, and they allow to create water-resistant eyeliners with an extremely glossy appearance.
Emollients can be used in a variety of ways. First of all, they create a pleasant, smooth feel by nourishing and relaxing the skin. With a combination of different emollients, additional sensory effects can be achieved, such as an increase in skin moisture. In addition, emollients can enhance pigment dispersion and stability in colour cosmetics products.
Emulsifiers are surface-active substances that are used to combine two originally immiscible or only partially miscible liquids like water and oil. Gentle cleansing emulsions are mainly used in facial cleansing, for instance as eye make-up removers.
Our acrylic resins are clear polymers with dispersing properties. Pigments are added to the SYNTRAN® dispersants in order to produce stable pigment dispersions. The result: good colour properties and high gloss in cosmetic products. In addition, they ensure that the pigments remain well-dispersed – even if only small quantities are added.
Solubilisers are used to produce clear aqueous solutions of different oils, like perfumes or essential oils of various origins. Caring components can also be incorporated into make-up formulations.
Our ready-to-use pre-dispersed pigments enable manufacturers to mix pigmented formulas right away. Thanks to the choice of different ingredients, great colour strength and excellent coverage properties can be achieved – without compromising the properties of the film former in the end product, such as shine, adhesion and water resistance.
Our SYNTRAN® polymers guarantee the transfer resistance of the make-up formula and ensure that it lasts all day long. Thanks to the dispersing and binding properties of polymers, the product can be distributed more evenly. Consequently, the final film is more homogeneous and cohesive. With our wax-grafted technology, we offer the customer an adequate playtime. The formula feels pleasant on the skin upon application and afterwards. In addition, the product feels weightless and prevents the pigments from coming off.

The water-based SYNTRAN® materials give liquid lip cosmetics additional transfer resistance. Depending on the formula, zero transfer can be achieved while maintaining a high level of comfort. Lasting elasticity, shine and water resistance are further benefits.

Based on our proprietary SAFE (State-of-the-art Acrylic Film-forming Emulsion) technology, we have developed a state-of-the-art emulsion that forms an acrylate film and is a valuable alternative to solvent-based nail polishes. The product is high-gloss, waterproof and sufficiently hard; it also dries quickly, adheres very well and lasts a long time. Only a single layer is needed to achieve this performance. Our base coat formulation with short drying time and a long-lasting effect can be effortlessly applied and permits an easy removal of water-based nail polish systems.

Richly pigmented paints that dry quickly are a must-have. The SYNTRAN® technology allows you to achieve these attributes in your formulations. Our polymers form an extremely shiny and water-resistant film on the surface of the skin. The formulation can be worn all day without any feeling of tension. Due to the transparency of the film, the authentic colours of the utilised pigments are shown off to their best advantage.
