Argan Ester Hydro
Argan Ester Hydro
A water-compatible derivative of argan oil designed to deliver lightweight conditioning while enabling the dispersion of lipids in water-based systems. Unlike traditional oils, it is structured to dissolve in water, allowing for more fluid textures and faster absorption.
In addition to its emollient properties, it also functions as a mild solubilizing and carrier agent, helping to evenly distribute oils within a formula and improve overall texture and performance.
