Hydrogenated vegetable glycerides is used in cosmetic formulations. The substance acts as an emollient (softens and smoothes the skin), emulsifier (changes the interfacial tension of liquids such as water and oil so that they can be mixed together) and viscosity regulator (increases or decreases the viscosity of cosmetic products).
