What Are Ester Oils?

Ester oils are naturally derived, meaning they come from plant-based oils like jojoba, avocado, and coconut. They go through a refining process called esterification, which enhances their absorption while keeping their natural skin-nourishing properties intact. Unlike synthetic emollients, ester oils are 100% natural, biodegradable, and gentle on the skin. They provide deep hydration without feeling greasy, making them perfect for lightweight, effective skincare. Plus, they help stabilize products naturally, ensuring a smoother texture and longer-lasting benefits.

Heptyl Undecylenate

It is a 100% natural, plant-derived emollient made from castor oil. It is lightweight, fast-absorbing, and gives skincare products a silky, non-greasy feel. Unlike synthetic silicones, it provides a smooth texture while keeping the skin moisturised and breathable. Its natural origin makes it biodegradable and skin-friendly, making it a great alternative for clean beauty formulations. It enhances spreadability, helps lock in moisture, and leaves the skin feeling soft without any heaviness.

Stearic Acid

Stearic Acid is a naturally derived fatty acid found in plant-based sources like shea butter and coconut oil. It acts as a natural thickener and stabilizer in skincare, helping to give body butter a rich, creamy texture. Since India’s weather is unpredictable, with high temperatures that can cause butters to melt during transit, we needed a thickener to maintain consistency. While many options were available, we chose stearic acid because it not only helps keep our body butter firm but also deeply nourishes the skin, strengthens the skin barrier, and improves product spreadability - without compromising on purity or effectiveness.
