Namely
Castor oil is obtained from castor seeds. It is here hydrogenated to change its consistency at room temperature and make it solid: this makes it a waxy material. It is then used in many cosmetics as emollient, film-forming agent or over-greasing. It is allowed in organic.
Its functions (INCI)
- Emollient : Softens and smoothes the skin
- Emulsifying : Promotes the formation of intimate mixtures between immiscible liquids by modifying the interfacial tension (water and oil)
- Skin conditioning : Maintains skin in good condition
- Surfactant : Reduces the surface tension of cosmetics and contributes to the even distribution of the product when it is used
- Viscosity controlling : Increases or decreases the viscosity of cosmetics
This ingredient is present in 1.82% of cosmetics.
