Stearyl Alcohol
$3.49
Description
Unlike traditional alcohols that can be drying to both skin and hair, stearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol. It’s great for skin and hair, adding emollient properties to emulsified or oil based products. It also acts as a co-emulsifier, helping to stabilize emulsions, and as a thickening agent. It has a silky feel in products and adds body without making your product feel heavy or greasy. Stearyl alcohol coats hair and skin with a thin coating, protecting strands and skin with a smooth film, helping to prevent damage and moisture loss. It can also help make hair smoother and shinier.
This product comes as a solid, waxy pellet. It’s melted and then added to oil based or emulsified products. It’s also plant derived and biodegradable.
This is a great ingredient to have in your collection if you’re making skincare or hair care products. It will help take lotions, conditioners, and masks to the next level.
