C10-18 TriglyceridesBarrier
A soft, low-melt triglyceride blend used as a gentle emollient that melts on contact with skin.
What it does
C10–18 triglycerides are a blend of medium- to long-chain triglycerides that are semi-solid at room temperature and soften near skin temperature. They condition the skin surface, add a smooth melting feel, and help structure the oil phase of balms and creams. They are an emollient rather than a skin active.
