Description
Hydrogenated Coco-Glycerides are derivatives of coconut oil that are obtained through hydrogenation. This process converts unsaturated fatty acids into saturated ones, making the ingredient more stable. In cosmetics, it performs several important functions: 1. Moisturizing and softening. Hydrogenated Coco-Glycerides act as emollients, forming a protective film on the skin that retains moisture, making the skin soft and elastic. 2. Improving texture. This component adds a silky texture to creams, lotions, or balms, making them easier to apply. 3. Formula stabilization. Thanks to its stability, the ingredient prevents the product from spoiling quickly. 4. Versatility. Hydrogenated Coco-Glycerides are suitable for use in both skin and hair care products.
