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
Sweet almonds have been used since ancient times in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern skincare for their emollient properties. This ingredient is a modern synthetic ester created by chemically modifying sweet almond oil with polyethylene glycol to improve water solubility and stability in cosmetic formulations.
