Cetyl lactate

Description:
Cetyl lactate is an ester formed from cetyl alcohol and lactic acid, characterized by its emollient properties and mildness, making it a popular ingredient in cosmetic and personal care formulations. It appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or semi-solid, with a characteristic fatty odor. Cetyl lactate is known for its ability to enhance the texture and spreadability of products, providing a smooth, silky feel on the skin. It acts as a skin-conditioning agent and can help to improve the stability of emulsions. Additionally, it has low toxicity and is generally regarded as safe for use in various applications, including lotions, creams, and hair care products. Its chemical structure contributes to its hydrophobic nature, allowing it to form a barrier on the skin that helps to retain moisture. Overall, cetyl lactate is valued for its multifunctional properties in enhancing product performance and user experience in the cosmetic industry.
