Cetearyl Ethylhexanoate

Cetearyl ethylhexanoate is a synthetic ester that functions as an emollient and skin conditioning agent. It provides a non-greasy, silky feel to products and helps to improve the spreadability of formulations. It also helps to keep the skin soft and smooth by forming a protective barrier that reduces moisture loss.
