A chicory-sugar ingredient that keeps oil and water mixed and smooths the texture.
What it does
It keeps oil and water mixed and makes creams feel smoother, usually alongside other ingredients that do the same job. It’s made from inulin, a sugar from chicory, joined to a fatty chain. It’s there to hold the formula together, not to change your skin.
The EU’s ingredient database lists it as a stabilizer (helps oil and water stay mixed).European Commission, CosIng (© European Union, CC BY 4.0) · uses put in plain words by Drop ↗
