Octyldodecanol is a fatty alcohol, so it can give the skin an oily component, this is how it helps the skin stay hydrated. 
By forming a protective layer on the skin, it reduces water loss, makes the skin look soft and smooth, and this process helps the skin to stay moist. 

This feature is especially beneficial for dry skin. 
Octyldodecanol also stabilizes the product and prevents the components from separating into their oil and water-based components. 

An emulsion is more likely to break when a product is exposed to higher temperatures or humid conditions. 
So, when an emulsifier is used in any product, it can help stabilize it even more. 

In addition, octyldodecanol is resistant to hydrolysis, meaning it does not destabilize itself even if it comes into contact with other chemicals. 
Therefore, Octyldodecanol can be considered a fairly stable component.

USES:

Octyldodecanol is a fatty alcohol, so it can impart a fatty component to the skin, that’s how it helps in keeping skin moisturized. 
Octyldodecanol forms a protective layer on the skin, reducing water loss, makes skin soft and smooth in appearance, this process helps skin remain hydrated. 

This property is particularly helpful for dry skin. 
Octyldodecanol also stabilizes the product and prevents the components from getting separated into its oil and water-based components. 

When a product is exposed to higher temperatures or humid conditions, the chances of breaking off an emulsion increase. 
So, when an emulsifier is used in any product it may help to stabilize it further. 

Moreover, octyldodecanol is resistant to hydrolysis, in other words even if it comes in contact with other chemicals it does not destabilize itself.
