Used primarily in cosmetics and personal care products as an emollient and skin conditioning agent. It helps to soften and smooth the skin by forming a protective barrier that reduces moisture loss. Commonly found in creams, lotions, and ointments for its ability to improve texture and spreadability. Also functions as a fragrance component in some formulations due to its mild, pleasant odor. Stable under normal storage conditions and compatible with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients.
