Used primarily in cosmetics and skincare formulations, this ingredient serves as an emollient that provides a smooth, silky feel to products. It helps improve spreadability and leaves a non-greasy finish on the skin, making it ideal for lotions, creams, and makeup. Its stability and resistance to oxidation enhance product shelf life. Due to its lightweight texture, it is often found in facial products and sunscreens where a pleasant tactile experience is desired. It also helps condition the skin by reducing flakiness and softening rough patches without clogging pores.
