SORBITAN SESQUIOLEATE

INCI: Sorbitan Sesquioleate

What is Sorbitan Sesquioleate?

Sorbitan sesquioleate is an anionic surfactant obtained from a mix of mono- and di-esters of oleic acid and hexitol anhydrides derived from sorbitol. Sorbitol and oleic acid are obtained from natural sources. Sorbitan sesquioleate is a clear, viscous liquid, soluble in oil.

Use & Benefits:

  • Emulsifying Agent: Sorbitan sesquioleate functions as an emulsifier and offers stability in cosmetic products. Emulsifiers create a liaison between the water and fat phases, thus inhibiting component separation.
  • Component Dispersion: Allows for equitable dispersion of the product's components.
  • Wetting Agent: Used as a wetting agent and dispersant for pigments in color cosmetics.
  • Moisture Retention: Has emollient properties, forms a thin layer on the skin, and retains moisture.
  • Skin Feel: Provides a soft, smooth feel on the skin.
  • Hydration Protection: Prevents the loss of water from the upper layer of the skin, thus preventing drying.
  • Versatile Use: Used in formulations of creams, lotions, gels, makeup products, perfumes, fragrances, and other skincare products.
