Uses
isostearic acid is an emollient that forms a lipid film on the skin permeable to water vapor, oxygen, and carbon dioxide. It can also serve as a binder in pressed powders, or as a cleansing agent, emulsifier and surfactant in other formulations. Isostearic acid is recommended for use in moisturizing cosmetics. This fatty acid is similar to the waxes secreted by birds for feather maintenance.
