Where does it come from?
Sorbitan olivate is sourced from olive oil, a natural and nutrient-rich oil extracted from the fruit of the olive tree. The fatty acids in olive oil are chemically reacted with sorbitol to produce sorbitan olivate. This ingredient leverages the hydrating and nourishing properties of olive oil, while the sorbitol component helps to stabilize emulsions in cosmetic formulations.
