What is Octyl Palmitate?

Another name for this is Ethylhexyl palmitate. It is an ester made by the reaction of 2-ethylhexanol and palmitic acid. I think it can be naturally derived from palm oil.It's formula is C24H48O2.

It is used in many of your household products. It is used in many perfumes and fragranced products as a fixative for the fragrance.It is used in cosmetics as a solvent, carrying agent for active ingredients, wetting agent for wetting pigments, and emollient (adjuster of skin moisture and feel). You'll find it in most lipsticks, foundation creams, and in many lotions.

It has a sorta dry oil feel, similar to some dimethicone blends.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
