Used as a skin-conditioning agent in cosmetics and personal care products. It helps improve the texture and feel of skin by providing moisturizing and smoothing effects. Commonly found in lotions, creams, and anti-aging formulations due to its ability to enhance skin hydration and support barrier function. Also acts as a mild emollient, making it suitable for sensitive skin products. Its ester-based structure allows for good compatibility with other cosmetic ingredients and contributes to pleasant sensory properties in final formulations.
