Oleogel BaseWhat is Oleogel Base? Oleogel Base helps to transform oils and butters into rich and creamy textures. This ingredient is a fine base for various skin care products and is ideal for making (lip) balms, creams and facial cleansers. This ingredient consists of more than 75% vegetable glycerin, which intensively hydrates the skin and gives it a silky smooth texture. Glycerin binds the remaining ingredients, creating a smooth and creamy consistency.
