Functions
Emollient
Fills in the tiny cracks between skin cells to make everything feel smooth and soft. The "silky finish" ingredient.
Emulsifying
Forces oil and water to stay mixed instead of separating into layers. The unsung hero holding your lotion together.
Locks In Moisture
Traditional Use
Synthetic emulsifier created by chemically modifying olive oil with polyglycerin. Developed as a botanical-derived surfactant to blend the historical benefits of olive oil with modern cosmetic stability requirements.
