About Palmitic Acid
Palmitic acid is a fatty acid.[1] The moisturization and spreadability of finished products containing palmitic acid may vary depending on the concentration used and the combination of moisturizing and emollient ingredients used with it. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce friction on the skin or hair, add a smooth feel, and create emulsified formulas in which water and oil are evenly mixed.[2]
