Sucrose Tetrastearate TriacetateBarrier
A sugar-based ester used to structure oils and stabilize emulsions in sun and color products.
What it does
Sucrose Tetrastearate Triacetate is an ester of sucrose with stearic and acetic acids. It thickens and structures the oil phase and helps stabilize emulsions, so it is used to give body and even spread, often in sunscreens. It is a texture-and-stability ingredient rather than a skin active.
