OzokeriteBarrier
A mineral wax that hardens and structures anhydrous products and helps bind oils together.
What it does
Ozokerite is a naturally occurring mineral wax. It is used to harden and structure balms, sticks, and other oil-based products, to raise their melting point, and to bind oils so they do not separate. It also leaves a smooth occlusive film. It is a structuring ingredient rather than an active.
