So, what is lanolin ricinoleate?
Lanolin ricinoleate is a natural, plant-derived emollient that is commonly used in the cosmetic and personal care industries. It is created by esterifying castor oil with lanolin, a waxy substance derived from sheep's wool. Lanolin ricinoleate is known for its exceptional moisturizing and conditioning properties, making it an ideal ingredient for skincare products. Its ability to penetrate deeply into the skin helps to soothe and hydrate dry, chapped, and irritated skin. Additionally, lanolin ricinoleate has a silky texture that helps to improve the spreadability and smoothness of formulations.
