Esterquat 65 description

Esterquat 65 is an innovative, green star in hair care that has become incredibly popular in organic and natural products. It is a plant-based conditioning emulsifier that offers a fantastic, eco-friendly alternative to older, traditional conditioning ingredients. It is readily biodegradable and gentle on nature, so you can enjoy luxurious, soft hair with a clear conscience. Esterquat 65 works wonders in hair care products such as conditioners, hair masks, and solid conditioner bars. It effectively targets the parts of the hair shaft that need extra care, smooths the hair's outer layer, and immediately eliminates static electricity. The result is hair that is incredibly easy to comb, both wet and dry. Unlike many other heavy conditioning ingredients, it doesn't weigh hair down, but instead leaves it feeling light and full, with a soft texture and plenty of natural shine. It's also an excellent emulsifier that helps bind oil and water into creamy formulas. When used in skin care products, it provides a unique, velvety, dry feel on the skin that absorbs quickly without feeling sticky.
