C13-15 Alkane

It is a light dry non-volatile emollient and can be considered the natural alternative to petroleum-based hydrocarbons, such as isohexadecane, and low molecular weight silicones, such as cyclomethicone. On the skin it helps impart a light texture with a non-sticky, non-greasy and silky finish. It is renewable and biodegradable.
