GLYCEROL MONO STEARATE

About GLYCEROL MONO STEARATE

Glycerol Oleate is a monoester of glycerin and oleic acid widely used in cosmetic and personal care formulations. It appears as a pale yellow to amber liquid or semi-solid material and is valued for its excellent emollient, moisturizing, and skin-conditioning properties. Glyceryl Oleate functions as a refatting agent, helping to replenish lipids that may be removed during cleansing and thereby reducing skin and hair dryness. It improves the mildness of surfactant-based formulations and leaves the skin feeling soft, smooth, and conditioned after use. The ingredient is commonly used in shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, liquid soaps, baby care products, conditioners, and skincare formulations. In hair care products, Glyceryl Oleate enhances softness, shine, and manageability while helping to reduce static and improve combability. It also acts as a co-emulsifier and emulsion stabilizer in various cosmetic systems. Due to its excellent compatibility with surfactants and emollients, Glyceryl Oleate is widely used in mild cleansing and conditioning formulations designed for sensitive skin and hair.
