🎯 At a Glance
🔬 How It Actually Works
A solid, waxy ester that melts at skin temperature. It is highly occlusive, forming a protective barrier that locks in moisture completely.
💖 Why your skin loves it
Deeply conditions severely dry skin and thickens formulations.
💡 Pro Tip
Highly comedogenic. Absolutely avoid this if you have acne-prone skin or closed comedones.
⚖️ Myth vs. Fact
The Myth
Because it is derived from nutmeg, it is safe for acne.
The Science
Natural origin does not equal non-comedogenic; this is one of the heaviest esters available.
