INGREDIENT GLOSSARY • Thickener
cetyl alcohol
AT A GLANCE
Cetyl Alcohol

A skin-loving emollient and thickener that helps keep lotions and creams stable.

Type of Ingredient

Thickener

Why we use it

Skincare products like lotions and creams contain both water-based and oil-based ingredients. Cetyl alcohol helps stabilize those mixtures and keep those ingredients from separating. It also thickens the texture and helps give it a soft, non-greasy feel on the skin.
