Clear Xanthan Gum is a natural gum polysaccharide created through fermentation of sugar (glucose or sucrose) by Xanthomonas campestris bacteria. Xanthan Gum is used in cosmetics as a thickener or rheology modifier and emulsion stabilizer.
It is a higher purity, cosmetic grade made without hydration retardants for quicker thickening. It produces the clearest gels. Our Xanthan Gum Clear in solution will have greater viscosity and clarity than our Xanthan Gum Soft, but with more stringing effect.
Characteristics of Clear Xanthan Gum:
- Natural source thickener
- High viscosity at low use

- Synergistic with other gums, including GuarCatâ„¢
- Compatible with 70% isopropyl alcohol
