Functions
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Emulsifying
Forces oil and water to stay mixed instead of separating into layers. The unsung hero holding your lotion together.
Locks in moisture
Traditional Use
Lecithin is derived from soybeans or egg yolks and has been used as an emulsifier since the late 1800s. Hydrogenation (a 20th-century process) was applied to improve stability and shelf-life in cosmetic formulations.
