Cetearyl Alcohol

By Tatiana Weathers
Cetearyl Alcohol

Why We Love It: This magic ingredient is an emulsifier, meaning it holds the formula together and enables the oils and liquids in the formula to marry together well – but don’t let the word alcohol scare you. This is not your average drying alcohol. Cetearyl Alcohol is a mixture of  cetyl alcohol and stearyl alcohol. These fatty alcohols are made from coconut and palm oil. They are extremely conditioning, hydrating  and give our products slip, meaning taming and detangling your curls will be easier than ever!

Our Coconut Almond Leave-In Conditioner and Wash-Out Conditioning Balm rely on this bonding agent to formulate the perfect consistency for natural hair.
