Cetearyl alcohol consists of a combination of cetyl (also known as 1-hexadecanol) and stearyl (1-octadecanol) alcohols. Cetearyl alcohol is found in nature, specifically from the coconut palm tree and the oil palm. Cetearyl alcohol is one of those skin care ingredients that really pulls double duty. Cetearyl alcohol is found in all kinds of products from moisturizers to lotions to creams to hair conditioners and some make-up and perfume.

Emollient: Cetearyl alcohol helps moisturize and soften the skin, not just by providing hydration, but by locking moisture in to the skin.

Stabilizer: Cetearyl alcohol helps skin care formulas maintain their texture, consistency, and thickness.

Emulsifier: Cetearyl alcohol is like the peacemaker of the skin care world, acting as a binding agent, helping to keep oil and water, which ordinarily have a hard time staying together, together.

Thickener: Without cetearyl alcohol, a lot of your skin care would behave more like a soup than a cream.
