Vegan Spicules

Vegan Spicule is a synthetic micro-rod ingredient that mimics natural sponge spicules and provides a vegan, sustainable alternative for cosmetic formulations. These microscopic rods create temporary micro-channels in the skin and enhance the penetration of active ingredients. They improve ingredient absorption and boost overall formulation performance. Vegan Spicule supports gentle skin renewal and smooths skin texture. Its controlled particle size enables effective penetration while minimizing irritation. Formulators use it in anti-aging, resurfacing, and advanced delivery systems. It is available in controlled particle size grades (75 μm, 150 μm, 200 μm) to tailor penetration intensity and skin stimulation.
