SZ Cetyl Alcohol, 8 oz. For DIY Cosmetics, Soaps, Candles or any Craft Project.

Cetyl alcohol is a fatty substance and comes in a form of a solid wax. Cetyl alcohol is derived from plant sources like coconut or palm oils; however, it is not your typical alcohol; it is, actually, used as a moisturizing ingredient in cosmetics products like lotions and crmes. It is an oil soluble and needs to be melted prior to adding to the formulations (can be melted together with all other oils and butters). When Cetyl alcohol is added to the products (crmes, lotions, conditioners, candles...) it will, also, serve as a thickener, emollient, emulsifier and/or opacifier.
