Sorbitan Palmitate

Sorbitan Palmitate is an ester derived from sorbitol and palmitic acid, functioning primarily as an emulsifier in cosmetic products. It helps to blend oil and water components that would otherwise separate. This ingredient also contributes to the texture and stability of formulations.
