PCA Glyceryl Oleate

PCA glyceryl oleate is an emollient of natural origin obtained through the saponification and esterification of vegetable oils and sugar. It is used in cosmetics especially in hair products as it has an antistatic effect and helps detangle wet hair. PCA Glyceryl Oleate is a 100% natural conditioning agent (compliant with ECOCERT/COSMOS guidelines). It is a multifunctional ingredient for natural cosmetics that can be used as a skin conditioner, thanks to the presence of PCA, a constituent of the natural hydration factor (Natural Moisturizing Factor, NMF) and for hair, with a beneficial action against all hair types. From the comparison between a natural shampoo on the market and a shampoo containing PCA Glyceryl Oleate made by consumers at home, it emerged that the shampoo containing PCA led to the following performances:

  • Better rinse ability
  • Greater ease of combing when wet
  • Greater ease of combing when dry
  • Most popular overall
