Isostearyl Isostearate

Description

Isostearyl Isostearate is a soft emollient that is formed as a result of the reaction between isostearyl alcohol and isostearic acid. Its main role in cosmetics is to provide smoothness, silkiness, and softening of the skin and hair. It creates a pleasant non-greasy texture, spreads easily, reduces moisture loss, and adds comfortable glide to creamy products. It is often used as an alternative to silicones in products with a more natural positioning. It works well in decorative cosmetics (lipsticks, foundations), as well as in creams, lotions, sunscreens, and conditioners.
