Ingredient Info
Sucrose Cocoate is a natural emulsifier derived from coconut oil and sugar that helps mix oil and water-based ingredients together in skincare formulas. It's commonly used in moisturizing products to create stable, creamy textures while supporting skin hydration.
Benefits
- Helps stabilize emulsions for better product texture and consistency
- Supports skin hydration and moisture retention
- May help strengthen the skin's natural barrier function
- Derived from natural sources (coconut and sugar)
Science: Research shows sucrose cocoate creates physically stable emulsions with favorable effects on skin hydration and barrier improvement. Studies indicate it's well-tolerated in topical formulations at typical use levels (around 0.5% or less).
