What it does
Glyceryl behenate (and the related tribehenin) is a wax-like glyceride of behenic acid. It thickens and firms the oil phase, gives sticks and balms structure, and adds a smooth emollient feel; it can also act as a co-emulsifier. It is a structural-and-texture ingredient rather than a skin active.
