Ingredient

Glyceryl Stearate

Benefits

Natural

Glyceryl stearate is an emulsifying and stabilising ingredient; it allows oil and water-based ingredients to mix well together.

The glyceryl stearate purchased by Lush is derived from olives and more specifically from a crude fat produced during the process of making olive oil, in Italy.

Glyceryl stearate is often combined with PEG-100 stearate to create an even more powerful stabiliser.
