Essentially Natural Stearic Acid Triple Pressed – Vegetable-Derived Emulsifier & Thickener 100% Pure

Essentially Natural Stearic Acid Triple Pressed is a high-purity, vegetable-derived fatty acid commonly used in soap making, cosmetics, and candle formulation as an emulsifier, thickener, and stabiliser. Triple pressing ensures a refined, consistent product ideal for achieving desired texture and hardness in formulations. The white, flaky solid is odourless and blends seamlessly into both water- and oil-based systems.

This grade of stearic acid possesses a melting point of approximately 69–72?°C and is supplied in food-grade, kosher-certified form with no additives or fillers. It functions as a co-emulsifier with surfactants, improves bar hardness in cold-process soap, and reduces shrinkage in paraffin and soy wax candles. Its triple-pressed refinement results in low impurity levels, supporting reliable performance in sensitive personal care applications.

Ideal for DIY crafters, small batch manufacturers, and formulators seeking a dependable, natural-derived thickener, this product supports the creation of stable lotions, creams, balms, and transparent glycerin soaps. It enhances product shelf life by improving emulsion stability and contributes to a luxurious, non-greasy feel in skincare.
