Lauryl Laurate

Lauryl Laurate

Lauryl Laurate is a plant based mono ester wax that has low-molecular weight. Perfect to use in personal care formulations as emollient slip agent and skin-penetrating agent. It can also replace ester oils in cosmetic formulas to provide a smooth, non-greasy feel. It is an excellent film former (increases substantivity) and has a low melting point helps to increase the stability of cosmetic formulations.

Benefits:

Enhanced emulsion stability.
Provides a talc-powder (silicone like) after-feel in some applications.
Provides enhanced whiteness in creams and lotions vs. microcrystalline waxes (PE-34
& PE-40).
Excellent film former (increases substantivity).
Reduces the greasy feel of oil systems.
Improves payoff characteristics in sticks (lipstick, AP, etc.)

Compatibility: Laurel Laurate is compatible with most vegetable and mineral waxes, as well as vegetable oils, mineral oils and petrolatum.
