Brassica Campestris (Rapeseed) Sterols

Brassica Campestris Sterols are plant-derived compounds from rapeseed oil. They function as emollients and skin-conditioning agents, helping to strengthen the skin's barrier and reduce water loss. This contributes to improved skin hydration and a smoother feel.
