Description
This petroleum-derived wax acts as a thickening agent that helps give skincare products their desired texture and consistency. It's commonly used in creams, balms, and stick formulations to create a smooth, spreadable feel and prevent products from being too runny. Since it's a petroleum-based ingredient, those with sensitive skin may want to patch test products containing it first.
