It is an essential ingredient in many skin care and cosmetic products, including creams, lotions, makeup, cleansing products, and more. Its moisturizing properties make it ideal for products designed to hydrate and bake the skin. This substance is also popular in the manufacturing industry due to its favorable toxicity profile and is harmless even with long-term use.
