    Information

    Glyceryl stearate citrate is a versatile, naturally derived fatty acid ester composed of glycerin, stearic acid, and citric acid. It is widely regarded as a safe and potent component in skincare, for its multifunctional properties, serving as an emollient, emulsifier, and sometimes as a surfactant.
    Glyceryl Stearate SE is a self-emulsifying form of Glyceryl Stearate, a compound derived from glycerin (a natural humectant) and stearic acid (a fatty acid). The β€œSE” indicates that it contains a small amount of added emulsifiers, enabling oil and liquid components in a formulation to blend seamlessly and remain stable.

    Where does it come from?

    Glyceryl stearate citrate is a naturally derived fatty acid ester composed of glycerin, stearic acid, and citric acid. It is typically derived from plant-based sources, such as plant oils.

    What are the benefits?

    HYDRATING PROTECTING SOFTENING

    What are the benefits?

    • Hydration: Glyceryl stearate citrate contributes to hydration, serving as a natural lubricant that keeps skin soft and smooth.
    • Skin Conditioning: It forms a protective barrier on the skin, locking in moisture and contributing to the skin's overall vibrancy.
    • Non-Sensitizing: It is well-suited for sensitive skin due to its mild and non-sensitizing nature.
    • Emollient: It can soften and smooth the skin.
    • Emulsifier: Assists in blending liquid and oil-based ingredients, ensuring product stability and a consistent texture.
    • Cleansing Agent: It can also function as a surfactant, mixing with oil and dirt on the skin's surface for optimal cleansing.

    How is it used in our products?

    Glyceryl stearate citrate is included for its gentle, hydrating, and protective properties that also benefit sensitive skin.

    Glyceryl stearate citrate is used in F05, F07, F08, F09, F10, F18, B20, B52, and B54 from OLIVEDA and 003 from LA DOPE.
