  • Alternative to Ethylhexyl Stearate

    Hi all.

    I need your help to find out is there any alternative materials to Ethylhexyl Stearate? 

    Emollients that I can access are; C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Isododecane, Isopropyl Myristate, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride.

    Thanks in advance!

    Several of those are options. I would suggest trying the C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate and the Isopropyl Myristate initially. Once you have those samples, it will all come down to validating the Formula and evaluating the Formula in the lab.
