About Propylene Glycol Distearate

Propylene Glycol Distearate is a diester of propylene glycol and stearic acid.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to reduce friction and add a smooth feel to the skin or hair, reduce light transmission so the contents appear less see-through, and add a subtle pearlescent sheen to the product.[2] It is also used to control the formulation’s viscosity and flow.[2]
