Palmitic Acid

Palmitic acid (INCI: Palmitic Acid; IUPAC: Hexadecanoic Acid; CAS# 57-10-3) is a saturated fatty acid and the most common saturated fatty acid found in both animals and plants. It is naturally present in human skin, classifying it as a skin-identical ingredient. In cosmetic formulations it functions as an emollient and emulsifying agent, and can also act as a foam-building cleansing agent in rinse-off products.

● Benefits

As an emollient, palmitic acid helps make skin feel smooth and soft in moisturizers. It also contributes to foam building and cleansing performance in cleansers and shaving foams. Its skin-identical nature supports its role in reinforcing the skin's natural lipid composition.
