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 as a cosmetic emollient and solvent. Created to provide lightweight moisturization and improve texture in skincare and makeup formulations.
