Rep Power: 0 | Re: Stearic Acid Hi Beantown, No steraic acid is not an exfoliant to tan, Stearic acid is a fatty acid or an emollient in cosmetic preparation, it works as a thickener, or ingredient that keep other ingredients separating from formulation. HTH |

Rep Power: 0 | Re: Stearic Acid We use it when formulating our sugar scrubs. Its helps emulsify the oils and when used in the shower with water turns into a lotion rather than leaving you feeling like an oil slick from the oils! |
