INCI: Cetearyl Alcohol & Cetearyl Glucoside

Montanov 68 MB is a non-ionic O/W emulsifier based on alkyl polyglucosides. It makes rich spreadable emulsions and uses liquid crystal technology, producing lamellar layers which mimic the lipid layers of the skin.

With moisturising properties of its own, Montanov 68 MB reduces transepidermal water loss in the skin, making for an exceptional emulsion.
