HOW TO USE IT

Use in formulations at 0.5% to 2%. Above this level, it can start to feel heavy on the skin as well as having a whitening or “soaping” effect.
 
Oil soluble so cannot be used in water-only products. Add to Stage 1 when making creams and lotions. Usually, it will be combined with other emulsifiers like VE Emulsifier and MF Emulsifier.
 
 
Skin Care
Use in dry skin creams to help slow down TEWL (Trans Epidermal Water Loss) whilst enriching the texture. It gives a good glide to the finished cream. Softens and smooths rough and dry skin, so it is excellent in gardeners hand creams and foot creams.
 
Hair Care
Add to other emulsifiers to use in hair conditioners. It adds texture without leaving the hair feeling heavy. It helps the product to rinse out more easily.

Cetyl alcohol has been my go-to fatty alcohol, so I'm looking forward to trying cetearyl alcohol for the first time.

I recommend this product

Great products-. Really useful, easy to obtain!

Whenever I want to formulate a skin cream for myself, my go to first codec is Aromantic! I can rely on the products being top of the range, and I know they will come really quickly, if not immediately, like my fairy godmother's wand quick! And, I love the play on words of the name!!
