Description

Hydrogenated Ethylhexyl Olivate is an emollient derived from olive oil that has undergone a process of hydrogenation. It is used in cosmetic products to soften, moisturize, and protect the skin. This ingredient mimics the skin's lipids, making it well-tolerated even by sensitive and irritated skin. Thanks to its silky texture, it makes products pleasant to apply without leaving a greasy film. It also helps restore the skin's barrier function, reducing moisture loss. It is often found in creams, balms, serums, after-sun products, and hair care products.
