Isostearic/myristic glycerides is a substance used in cosmetic formulations. The substance acts as emulsifier (changes the interfacial tension of liquids like water and oil so that they can be mixed together) and skin care product.

Glycerides are esters of glycerol with one or more fatty acids. In case of Isostearic/myristic these are isostearic and myristic acid.
