Description
Isohexadecane is a synthetic ingredient used in cosmetic products for various purposes. It is a water-repellent ingredient, so it is often used in creams and lotions to maintain moisture in the skin and prevent it from evaporating. In addition, Isohexadecane is added to the composition of cosmetic products as an emollient, which helps to maintain the softness and smoothness of the skin, reduce moisture loss and prevent dryness. Also, Isohexadecane can be used as a means to improve the texture and consistency of cosmetic products, for example, in creams, balms, hair dyes and other means. It helps to provide a smooth and uniform texture of the product, improves its distribution on the skin and allows easy distribution of the product on large areas of the body.
