Lexol GT-865 is a luxurious emollient with special appeal to the cosmetic formulator. It finds a wide use in creams and lotions where it not only functions as an emollient but also enhances emulsion stability. Its low viscosity, freezing point, and cloud point make it an ideal vehicle for bath oils and electric pre-shave lotions. It is also the emollient of choice in lipsticks and other make-up items. It is an outstanding solvent for perfume ingredients, particularly the crystalline materials, such as coumarin, heliotropine, and synthetic musks that form the basis of many fragrances used in cosmetics and toiletries.
