SZ Stearyl Alcohol 1 Lb. for DIY Cosmetics.

描述

Product comes in convenient re-sealable stand up pouch with zip lock. Stearyl alcohol is a fatty substance and comes in a form of a solid wax. Stearyl alcohol is derived from vegetable sources like coconut or palm oils. However, it is not your typical drying grain alcohol; it is, actually, often used as a moisturizing ingredient in cosmetics products like lotions and crèmes. It is oil soluble and needs to be melted prior adding to the formulations (can be melted together with your oils/butters). When Stearyl alcohol is added to the products (crèmes, lotions, conditioners, candles...) it will, also, serves as a thickener, emollient, co-emulsifier and/or opacifier. Stearyl alcohol is a “sibling” of other fatty alcohols like Cetyl, Cetearyl or Behenyl. Although similar it is still different. Thus, you could use it alone or in combination with other fatty alcohols in your formulations to achieve different feel, texture and thickness of your final products like crèmes, lotions, skin/hair conditioners. Review: Seems to work - Used this along with alcohol to make a liquid pool cover. Found a recipe on line for it and it was simple to make. It really cuts down on the evaporation and loss of heat. Little difficult to disolve but stay with it and it will. You can make this for about 25% of what the premade gallon sells for. Quick shipping, good price and very high quality. Review: Great for hair conditioner - The item is great for making thick products. I will purchase from vendor again.
