Hydrogenated coco-glycerides, hardened coco-acid glycerol esters, are used in cosmetic formulations. The ester acts as an emollient (makes the skin smooth and supple), consistency enhancer and skin care product. "Hydrogenated" means treated with hydrogen (hydrogenated or hardened). They are contained in numerous skin care products.
