Description

Myristyl myristate is a chemical emulsifier that is added to cosmetic products for various reasons: 1. Skin moisturizing. 2. Product texture: can add multi-purpose texture and consistency to the cosmetic product, providing a creamy or oily structure. 3. Protection from moisture loss: can create a barrier on the skin surface, helping to prevent moisture loss. 4. Distribution and spreading of other active ingredients: can help distribute other active ingredients on the skin and improve their effectiveness. 5. Improving product stability: can add stability and longevity to cosmetic products. 6. Reducing skin oiliness: in some cases can control sebum (oily material) secretion by the skin, helping to reduce oiliness and shine of the face. 7. Prevention of skin irritation: can help prevent irritation and inflammation of the skin, especially from harsh ingredients.
