Behenylic Alcohol: Overview
Behenyl alcohol, also known as docosanol, is a long-chain fatty alcohol derived from behenic acid, a fatty acid found in oils like peanut and rapeseed oil. It is commonly used in cosmetics and skincare products as an emollient, thickener, and stabilizer. Behenyl alcohol helps to improve the texture and consistency of formulations by providing a smooth, velvety feel and enhancing the spreadability of creams and lotions. It also acts as a conditioning agent, leaving the skin soft and hydrated. Due to its non-greasy, waxy nature, it is often used in products designed for sensitive or dry skin.
