About Ricinoleic Acid
Ricinoleic Acid is an unsaturated fatty acid.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to help sebum and impurities wash away with water, reduce friction and add a smooth feel to skin or hair, and create emulsion formulas in which water and oil are evenly mixed.[2] It is also used to lower surface tension so raw materials wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
