Description
An emollient ester (basically an oil like liquid) with a light, elegant and silky feel. It gives a matte finish to the products.
It often comes together with two other esters (called Tridecyl Stearate and Tridecyl Trimellitate) as the three of them can be blended so that they mimic very closely the aesthetic and textural properties of controversial, but nice feeling mineral oil.
