Glyceryl Stearate, also known as glyceryl monostearate, is a chemical compound that is derived from natural sources such as vegetable oils. The scientific name is derived from "glyceryl," which refers to glycerin, a common component in fats and oils, and "stearate," which indicates that it is derived from stearic acid.
Glyceryl Stearate is a commonly used ingredient in skincare products due to its emollient and emulsifying properties. It acts as a lubricant on the skin's surface, which gives the skin a soft and smooth appearance. Additionally, it helps to form stable emulsions, allowing water and oil-based ingredients to blend together seamlessly.
Kissed Earth incorporates Glyceryl Stearate in their skincare products to provide users with the benefits of this emollient and emulsifying ingredient. Some of the products that contain Glyceryl Stearate include the Awaken Collagen Day Cream, Enrich Collagen Body Butter, and Enliven Collagen Eye Cream. These products are designed to nourish and hydrate the skin, giving it a healthy and radiant appearance.
