Overview
Diisostearyl malate is an emollient ester supplied as a pale yellow liquid. It is characterized by a cushiony feel and a glossy sheen, and for that reason it is frequently used in lip products.
In addition, diisostearyl malate is a tasteless ingredient, which also makes it suitable for lip sticks and glosses. This ester can serve as a solvent, as well, where it is useful for dispersing pigments and other minerals. It is compatible with silicones and other oils, too, so it can be used in a wide range of skincare products.
