C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate is made up of Benzoic Acid and long chain alcohols. It has a low molecular weight.

As an emollient, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate helps soften and hydrate your skin. Emollients create a film on your skin that traps moisture within.

Abrasive, Absorbent

Silica is a mineral naturally found in our skin. It helps to thicken and smooth the texture of a product. It also acts as an agent for other ingredients by increasing the absorption of other ingredients into the skin.

Silica is often used for absorption and can help reduce shine when products are applied. Silica occurs in naturally in materials like clay and sandstone, and it can also be produced synthetically.

Silica is present naturally within the skin during collagen production and when reducing inflammation.

Umm..
It dulled my skin not sure if it’s because I used it incorrectly or it didn’t jam with my other products or their ingredients. Also quite small in packaging. Didn’t sting my eyes very convenient to use also when I would use the product it felt like I applied a film or residue on my face if that makes sense I’d have to blend it otherwise it’d look like I smudged Vaseline all over my face, Show more
