Summary

Skin Conditioning (Emollient) Texture Enhancer Stabilizing Agent Light Stabilizer

Science

Mechanism of Action

This ingredient functions by forming a soft, protective film on the skin's surface. It precisely fills microscopic gaps between skin cells, thereby diminishing the appearance of dryness and flakiness and promoting a smoother skin texture. Furthermore, it creates an occlusive barrier that significantly reduces transepidermal water loss (TEWL), effectively sealing in moisture and reinforcing the skin's natural barrier. Within formulations, it acts as a texture enhancer, facilitating smooth product application, and as a stabilizing agent.
