Emollient
Fills in the tiny cracks between skin cells to make everything feel smooth and soft. The "silky finish" ingredient.
Surfactant Emulsifying
Boosts Collagen
Wound Healing
Strengthens Barrier
Mixes oil and water
Traditional Use
Modern synthetic emulsifier combining polyethylene glycol with almond oil derivatives, developed in the cosmetics industry to create stable emulsions while leveraging almond oil's historical use in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern skincare traditions.
