Palmitic Acid (INCI: Palmitic Acid, CAS 57-10-3) is a C16 saturated fatty acid used by soap and cosmetic makers. It adds hardness, stable creamy lather and opacity to soaps and shaving creams, and works with stearic acid as the fatty-acid backbone of vanishing creams and lotions. We supply cosmetic grade palmitic acid to Pakistani formulators in lean 100g samples, 1kg packs and WhatsApp wholesale.
