About this ingredient

Sucrose distearate is a naturally-derived ester formed from sucrose and stearic acid. It functions as an emollient and emulsifier in cosmetic formulations, helping to soften skin, improve product texture, and stabilize oil-water mixtures. It is often used in sunscreens and moisturizers for its gentle conditioning properties.
