Polyhydroxystearic Acid

Polyhydroxystearic acid

Polyhydroxystearic acid is a dispersing agent: it surrounds pigment particles and mineral filters so they don't clump together and stay evenly distributed throughout the cosmetic base.

In foundation, this means uniform colour, smooth application and a stable texture that doesn't separate in the packaging. In our range, you will find it in our moisturising foundations.

Did you know?: Polyhydroxystearic acid is made from 12-hydroxystearic acid, which is obtained from castor oil.
