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
Developed as a synthetic emulsifier derived from polyglycerin and ricinoleic acid (from castor oil). Used in cosmetics to create stable emulsions with improved skin feel.
