Sorbitan Olivate
Sorbitan olivate
Sorbitan olivate is made from olive oil fatty acids and sorbitol, a sugar alcohol. It is an emulsifier - it allows the water and oil phases to combine into a stable, uniform emulsion.
It gives creams a light, smooth texture and leaves skin soft and smooth after application. In our cosmetics you'll find it in face creams, hand and body lotion, face scrub and hair styling products.
Did you know?: Olive-based emulsifiers form structures in creams similar to the skin's lipids, so the product works in harmony with the skin and doesn't weigh it down.
