Sucrose stearate is a combination of sucrose (sugar) and stearic acid, a fatty acid found in animal fats and shea butter. It is used in cosmetics as an emollient, emulsifier, and cleansing agent. It can be animal-, plant-derived or synthetic, with the plant-derived version being most common. Sucrose stearate is considered safe as used in cosmetics and has been shown to help enhance the effectiveness of other ingredients. It is also used in some medications as an excipient, a pharmacologically inactive substance. Sucrose stearate is a cold process emulsifier that creates light emulsions with a very low viscosity. It works best for an oil range between 15-25% (2.0-3.0% emulsifier). It is popular in oily gel cleansers as it improves the high-temperature stability of the formula. DUB™ SE 15S is a sucrose stearate based PEG free emollient suitable for use in organic cosmetic products. It provides very good penetration and a powdery touch. Sucrose stearate is a non-ionic surfactant based on sucrose stearate. It provides exceptional skin feel, suppleness and softness. It significantly improves the moisture content of the skin.
