## Description

MYOC Cetyl Alcohol Powder Cosmetic Grade (450 g / 15.87 oz) - Fatty Alcohol Thickener & Stabilizer for Creams Lotions Conditioners & DIY Formulations: desertcart.com: Industrial & Scientific

Review: Great addition to diy lotions & creams! - I’ve always been aversed to using, what I considered to be, “chemical” additives in jmy homemade body lotions & creams because I believed them to be unhealthy & harmful to the human body. Recently though, I’ve decided to research some of the additives that are commonly used in most all body lotions & creams that are on the market these days. And to my great surprise, I’ve learned that some of these additives (cetyl alcohol for example) are NOT, in fact, harmful & can actually be beneficial when used properly & in correct proportions in diy skin care preparations. Cetyl alcohol is not an “ alcohol” in the context that we are all familiar with ( rubbing alcohol being an example) but is actually a white, waxy substance, a “fatty alcohol “, that is packaged as a powder or flakes. It is used in cosmetics as a thickening agent, an emulsifier/surfactant ( permits oil & water to mix together) & an emollient ( makes skin soft). So this product, Cetyl alcohol is the “ magic ingredient “ that I’ve been looking for that was right under my nose all along! I just wasn’t wise enough to investigate it further to discover its relative harmlessness. It is often used in preparations for treating exzema, altho some people with exzema are actually sensitive to it so use caution. I’m excited to use this Cetyl alcohol in making my body care products because now I can make herbal decoctions and mix them with things like mango butter, coconut oil, almond oil etc. The CA will allow the oil & water to mix. Yippee! Small test batches have been hit or miss so far because I still need to adjust recipes & get the measurements more precise. But the addition of the CA has def made the lotions more emollient & they feel really nice on the skin. I can update review after I’ve used it more extensively. Great price for 8 ounces.
Review: Decent size - Going to good for my body butter recipe. The size is a decent size and the price seems fair, will update once I’ve used it.
