Castor oil hardened by hydrogenation into a waxy solid used to thicken and stabilize oil phases.
What it does
Hydrogenated castor oil is castor oil that has been treated with hydrogen to convert it from a liquid into a hard, waxy solid. It is used to thicken oil phases, give sticks and balms structure, and stabilize emulsions by helping suspend other ingredients. It also lends a smooth, cushioned glide. It is a structuring and texturizing ingredient rather than an active.
