About this ingredient
A self-emulsifying glyceride derived from glycerin and stearic acid, commonly used as an emulsifier and thickening agent in cosmetic formulations. It helps stabilize oil-in-water emulsions, improve texture, and provide mild skin conditioning benefits by forming a protective film on the skin surface.
