How C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate Works On Skin & Formulas
C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate adopts advanced synthetic ester molecular technology with ultra-low viscosity and strong spreadability. In cosmetic formulas, it acts as a multifunctional emollient and dispersant: it can uniformly disperse sunscreen particles and color pigments to ensure consistent product efficacy and color rendering. When applied to the skin surface, it spreads quickly and penetrates the superficial stratum corneum, softens rough keratin, locks skin moisture, and forms a non-greasy breathable protective layer. Its unique dry skin feel can neutralize the greasiness of heavy plant oils and waxes, optimize the overall texture of finished products, and improve skin comfort and makeup adhesion.
