Omni Gold Anti Marks Extra Brightening Soap

INCI Name
Cetearyl Alcohol

Cetearyl Alcohol is widely recognized for its exceptional emollient properties, making it a favoured ingredient in skincare essentials such as creams, lotions, and moisturizers.
Cetearyl Alcohol plays a crucial role in creating emulsions that are both stable and reliable, particularly in products like creams and lotions that encompass both water and oil components. This ensures a harmonious and well-blended end product.
Furthermore, it aids in enhancing the texture of hair, resulting in improved manageability, reduced frizz, and a luxuriously smooth touch.
Moreover, Cetearyl Alcohol significantly contributes to the longevity and stability of cosmetic products. By preventing ingredient separation and upholding the overall integrity of the formulation, it ensures a prolonged shelf life.
Lastly, Cetearyl Alcohol adds to the viscosity and thickness of formulations, granting a desirable consistency to products such as creams and body butter.
