Ethylhexyl Stearate

Ethylhexyl stearate is a synthetic ester derived from stearic acid and 2-ethylhexyl alcohol. It is commonly used in the cosmetics and skin care industry due to its emollient, lubricating properties and light feel. Ethylhexyl stearate is used in creams, lotions, balms, and other personal care products to help moisturize the skin, improve product texture, and make it easier to apply. It can also be used as a dispersing agent for other active ingredients.
