Stearic Acid, which is used as a solid glue and gel agent in the daily chemical industry
In the cosmetics industry, stearic acid is one of the commonly used raw materials. In skincare products like cold creams and vanishing creams, it plays an emulsifying role, capable of uniformly mixing the oil phase and water phase to form a stable, white cream structure, giving the product good texture and stability. At the same time, stearic acid can also serve as a rich fat agent and softener in skincare products, forming a thin protective film on the skin surface to help lock in moisture and prevent moisture loss, keeping the skin soft and smooth. In cleansing cosmetics such as facial cleansers, it can act as a solvent for cleaning the skin, helping to remove dirt and excess oil on the skin surface without over-cleansing and causing skin dryness. In addition, stearic acid can also serve as a glossing agent for creams, enhancing the appearance quality of cosmetics and making them more attractive.
