Myristyl Myristate

(0 review)
Myristyl Myristate is a natural, vegetable-derived ester used in cosmetic formulations as a co-emulsifier, stabiliser, and texture enhancer. It improves emulsion stability, adds thickness, and gives creams and lotions a smooth, bright white appearance. It also enhances skin feel by providing a soft, silky, and dry-powdery touch, helping reduce greasiness while improving moisture retention. It is ideal for creating stable, elegant, and luxurious skincare products.
