The EnSense™ Ester platform of ingredients provides a variety of benefits, such as improved barrier function of the skin, increased moisturization, reduced soaping effect, improved slip and glide, softening and smoothing. In formulation, they also function as solubilizers and pigment dispersing agents. Esters in general are smoother feeling, less oily and lighter than their fatty alcohol and fatty acid counterparts. The physiochemical properties of each ester contributes to their performance characteristics, providing sensory benefits that can be translated in a light, medium, or heavy feel. The EnSense™ platform of ingredients are derived primarily from natural sources. The EnSense™ Emollient Esters are categorized by the sensory they impart into a formulation, and each of these materials can help create sophisticated and unique feeling finished formulations.
