Glycol Cetearate (glycol monostearate or ethylene glycol monostearate) is an organic compound with the molecular formula C20H40O3. 
Glycol Cetearate is the ester of stearic acid and ethylene glycol. 
Glycol Cetearate is used as an ingredient in many types of personal care products and cosmetics including shampoos, hair conditioners, and skin lotions.

Glycol Cetearate is used as pearlising agent in low viscosity shampoos, cleansing creams, liquid soaps and bath gels. 
Glycol Cetearate is also used as an opacifier and oil-soluble emulsifier in such preparations as hand lotions and hand creams. 
The viscosity of the finished emulsion varies directly with the concentration of the ester but generally speaking 0.5% to 5.0% of the product may be used in hand lotions and 1.0% to 10.0% in hand creams.

Glycol Cetearate is an ethylene glycol monostearate or EGMS, an ester of ethylene glycol with stearic fatty acid. 
Glycol Cetearate is a white to off-yellowish powder or a light waxy flake, mainly used as a surfactant, opacifier, and pearliser in cleansing applications such as shampoos or foaming bath products.

In some preparations, Glycol Cetearate is used as a thickener, emulsion stabilizer (with an HLB of 2.0), or a consistency-providing (bodying agent) ingredient. 
Glycol Cetearate also can be used as a masking or softening agent with slight conditioning and antistatic properties.

Glycol Cetearate is a vegetable-derived universal ingredient and can be incorporated in emulsions and water-free formulations. 
Glycol Cetearate can be used as a pearlizing agent in shampoo and liquid hand soaps. 
Glycol Cetearate is typically used at 0.5-4%.

Glycol Cetearate is a ingredient extensively utilized in the cosmetic industry. 
Glycol Cetearate is derived from sources, like coconut oil and vegetable oils resulting in an ester of ethylene glycol and stearic acid. 
A waxy substance Glycol Cetearate finds application as an emollient in skincare products such as balms, soaps, and creams.

One of its purposes revolves around stabilizing emulsions. 
By ensuring the combination of water based and oil based ingredients it facilitates manufacturers in creating formulations with desirable textures.

Moreover Glycol Cetearate serves as a thickening agent that imparts an smooth consistency to skincare products. 
This attribute enhances their spreadability on the skin without leaving any greasiness or heaviness.

It's important to note that different types of Glycol Glycol Cetearates exist based on their origin and processing methods. 

Glycol Cetearate is frequently used in skincare products because it has properties that make the skin feel smooth and soft. 
Glycol Cetearate acts as a lubricant enhancing the texture of the skin. 
Additionally Glycol Cetearate plays a role, in maintaining the consistency of skincare formulations by preventing separation or excessive thickness.

Glycol Cetearate can be commonly found in lotions, creams and moisturizers since it has the ability to penetrate deeply into the layers of the skin without leaving a residue. 
Glycol Cetearate effectively addresses dryness and roughness resulting in more hydrated skin. 
For those seeking softer skin this ingredient offers benefits.
