Palm-derived glycerides used as a firming emollient and co-emulsifier in creams and balms.
What it does
Hydrogenated palm glycerides are semi-solid glycerides made from palm fatty acids. They soften the skin surface, give creams and balms body, and help hold the oil and water phases together; the citrate version adds emulsifying capacity. They are an emollient and structural ingredient rather than a skin active.
