About Butylene Glycol Behenate

Butylene Glycol Behenate is an organic compound.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to reduce friction and add a smooth feel to the skin or hair, to create emulsions in which water and oil are evenly blended, and to leave the skin’s surface feeling soft and smooth.[2] It is also used to lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
