Moisturizing and softening the skin: helps prevent moisture loss from the surface of the skin and supports its hydration. 2. Improving the texture of the product: can be used as an emollient and provides a smooth, cream-like texture of cosmetic products, helps to distribute the product evenly and ensures a comfortable application to the skin. 3. Providing skin protection: can function as a barrier ingredient, helping to retain moisture in the skin and preventing the negative effects of external factors such as wind or dry environment. 4. Solvent and dispersant: can help disperse other components, helping to ensure uniform distribution and dispersion in products. 5. Improving product stability.
