Description
Cetearyl Isononanoate is a light emollient that softens the skin, making it smooth and pleasant to the touch. It is often added to creams, lotions, makeup, conditioners, and sunscreens. It helps to make the texture of the product more silky, facilitates distribution on the skin or hair, without leaving a greasy film. In decorative cosmetics, such as foundations or lipsticks, it provides better glide and even application. It also reduces the "stickiness" of the formula and improves its comfort during use.
