About Butyl Stearate

Butyl Stearate is an ester of butyl alcohol and stearic acid.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to reduce friction on the skin or hair and add a smooth feel, to keep the characteristic odor or taste of raw materials from being overly noticeable, and to leave the skin surface feeling soft and smooth.[2]
