Functions
Emollient
Fills in the tiny cracks between skin cells to make everything feel smooth and soft. The "silky finish" ingredient.
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Traditional Use
Used in traditional Malagasy medicine for its antimicrobial and skin-conditioning properties; historically valued by indigenous Madagascar healers for skincare preparations.
