About Calcium Stearate

Calcium Stearate is the calcium salt of Stearic Acid.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to help powder ingredients flow evenly without clumping, add color to products or areas of application, and keep emulsions of water and oil from separating easily.[3] It is also used to control the viscosity and flow of formulations.[3] In Europe, it may be used to color cosmetics.[2]
