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 late 20th century as an emollient. Designed to provide skin conditioning and a smooth texture while being more stable than some natural oil alternatives.
