Mechanism of Action of Cetyl Alcohol
Water and oil do not mix, so moisturizers containing a fat such as cetyl alcohol lock moisture into the skin and form a protective barrier that water can't penetrate, preventing dry and parched skin. In addition to the unique barrier benefit of cetyl alcohol, it is often added as an ingredient to moisturizers to alter the consistency of liquid products or to increase foaming capacity.

Cetyl Alcohol is a generic medicine name and there are several brands available for it. Some of the brands for cetyl alcohol might be better known than cetyl alcohol itself.
