Description

Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate is a complex ether obtained from pentaerythritol and isostearic acid. In cosmetic products, it acts as an emollient, softener and moisturizer, providing a silky texture, pleasant application and a long-lasting barrier on the skin. It is often added to lipsticks, lip balms, oils, creams and decorative cosmetics because it enhances shine, improves spreadability and increases formula durability without leaving a greasy residue.
