Diisostearyl Malate

Diisostearyl malate is an ester derived from malic acid and isostearyl alcohol. It functions as an emollient, providing a smooth and soft feel to the skin. This ingredient also helps to improve the spreadability of cosmetic products and can contribute to a glossy finish, particularly in lip products.
