Stearyl alcohol is a very effective stabilizer, thickening agent, and emulsifier, for making lotions, creams, shower gel, hair care products, lip balm and more.
Stearyl Alcohol is a vegetable-based, refined fatty alcohol from from sustainable coconut oils. Compared to other fatty alcohols, like cetyl alcohol, in many formulations, stearyl alcohol will result in a product with a slightly softer, conditioned feel and a whiter appearance.

"The Flour of the Formulation World" |

COMMENTS: Stearyl alcohol is pretty useful to have in your formulation cabinet. It makes up the bulk (about 70%) of the blend called cetearyl alcohol. But it's also nice to use on its own to thicken up and add emollience to lotions, creams, butters, and even conditioners. I haven't tried it in lip balms, but now that I take another look at this listing, I think I'll have to try that. Good price for a great product.
