Märkägeeli

Märkägeeli, often translated as "wet gel" or "moist gel" in English, is a substance primarily used in the context of cosmetic and personal care products. It refers to a gel formulation that has a high water content, contributing to a distinct texture and feel. This high water content is often responsible for the gel's moisturizing properties.

The composition of märkägeeli typically involves a gelling agent, such as a carbomer or cellulose derivative, which creates the gel structure. Water is the primary solvent, and other ingredients like humectants (e.g., glycerin, hyaluronic acid), emollients, and preservatives are added to enhance its performance and stability. The water provides hydration and a cooling sensation upon application, while humectants draw moisture to the skin.

Märkägeeli is commonly found in products like facial moisturizers, hair styling gels, and after-sun lotions. Its ability to deliver hydration without feeling heavy or greasy makes it a popular choice for various skincare and haircare applications. The transparent or translucent appearance of many märkägeeli formulations is a direct result of their high water content and the dissolved nature of other ingredients. The term emphasizes the product's liquid-like consistency and its moisturizing capabilities.
