Functions
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
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 derived from linoleic acid (an essential fatty acid found in plant oils). Created in the late 20th century to provide the conditioning benefits of natural oils in a more stable, non-greasy form.
