Product description

Cetearyl alcohol is a 100% natural product of waxy consistency. It is made from palmitic acid. It is also called cetylstearyl alcohol. It acts as an emulsifier. It is ideal for products where you need an emulsifier and thickener in one.

Anemulsifier is a substance that allows a homogeneous mixture to be formed from otherwise immiscible liquids, such as water and oil. The addition of an emulsifier to the water/oil mixture results in an emulsion. These are, for example, creams, body lotions, shaving emulsions, make-up removing oils and anything containing oil and water.

Cetearyl alcohol adds strength to creams and improves their consistency. It is very similar to cetyl alcohol except that it is milder. In addition to using it in creams, body lotions, etc., you can definitely use it in shampoos and conditioners.

Heat the cetearyl alcohol to a temperature of 60-70°C together with the oil phase and make sure it has completely dissolved.
