Cera microcristallina is a synthetic, microcrystalline wax used in cosmetic preparations. The wax acts as a binding agent and emulsion stabilizer (supports emulsion formation, improves the resistance and durability of emulsions), opacifier and viscosity regulator (increases or decreases the viscosity of cosmetic products).
