Wickenol 142 is an emollient ester which acts as a superb pigment dispersing oil. Its low odor and lack of taste make it ideal for use in lipsticks. Wickenol 142 enhances the smooth, creamy application of lipstick and other stick products. It has a rich, nonoily skin feel especially suitable for suntan lotions. Because of its elegant characteristics, this ester is also finding widespread use as a pigment dispersant, binder in pressed powder and as a rich emollient in cream and lotion formulas.
