Emulsifiers

Cetyl Alcohol 2Lbs / 908g
Cetyl Alcohol is a versatile co-emulsifier widely used in skincare and haircare formulations to improve texture and stability. Despite its name, it is not a drying alcohol but a waxy, fatty substance derived from distilled fats. At low usage levels (0.25%–1%), it enhances emulsion stability, softens formulations, and improves spreadability without contributing to thickness on its own. Ideal for lotions, creams, conditioners, and hair masks, Cetyl Alcohol reduces greasiness while delivering a smooth, velvety feel. For best performance, it should be combined with emulsifying waxes or stearates such as stearic acid. This ingredient comes as white wax-like flakes, insoluble in water but soluble in oils, and is added to the oil phase during formulation. A staple in both rinse-off and leave-on products, Cetyl Alcohol offers formulators an effective way to refine product performance and sensory appeal.

Beeswax – 2 Lbs / 908 g
Beeswax Pellets are a natural, easy-to-use wax ideal for cosmetic formulations and candle making. Clean and filtered to remove impurities, these convenient pellets melt evenly and blend well with oils and butters. Beeswax provides excellent binding properties in lip balms, helping create stable formulas with a smooth, neutral taste. It can also be combined with soy wax for cost-effective candle production. In creams and lotions, beeswax helps add structure and protective properties, though it is typically recommended at low levels (1–2%) to maintain a pleasant skin feel. A versatile ingredient for skincare, DIY formulations, and private label products.

Stearic Acid 2Lbs / 908g
Stearic Acid (Palm Stearate)
Stearic Acid is a plant-derived fatty acid commonly used in cosmetic formulations as a co-emulsifier. This version is sourced from palm stearate and root vegetables, offering a sustainable alternative to animal-based stearic acid. In creams and lotions, it helps stabilize emulsions, improve texture, and enhance spreadability. While not an effective thickener on its own, Stearic Acid works synergistically with emulsifying waxes or fatty alcohols, such as Cetyl Alcohol, to create smooth, stable products with a refined skin feel. A waxy, white substance, it is insoluble in water but soluble in oils and is typically melted into the oil phase during formulation. Its versatility and functionality make it an essential raw material for skincare and personal care product development.

Soy Wax – 5Lbs
Soy Wax (5 lbs / 2.27 kg) is a natural, plant-based wax derived from soybeans, perfect for candles, lip balms, soaps, and cosmetic formulations. It melts easily, offers low shrinkage, clean burning, and produces minimal smoke, making it ideal for high-quality candles. In personal care, it provides a smooth, non-tacky texture and excellent stability across temperatures, making it a great alternative to beeswax. Odorless and versatile, soy wax is a reliable choice for natural and clean beauty formulations.
