Emollient

Fills in the tiny cracks between skin cells to make everything feel smooth and soft. The "silky finish" ingredient.

Locks In Moisture

Traditional Use

A synthetic ester developed in the 20th century by combining batyl alcohol with stearic acid. Created to function as an emollient and texture modifier in cosmetics.
