About Stearyl Palmitate

Stearyl Palmitate is an ester of stearyl alcohol and palmitic acid.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to help ingredients bind together and maintain the product’s shape, create emulsions in which water and oil are evenly mixed, and reduce tangling and roughness for smoother, more manageable hair.[2] It is also used to attract moisture to the formula and skin’s surface to help maintain hydration, reduce light transmission so the contents appear less visible, and leave the skin’s surface feeling soft and smooth.[2] It helps keep the formula’s condition and properties from changing easily during storage.[2]
