DESCRIPTION
What It Does: Provides emollient conditioning, essential fatty acid supplementation, and barrier lipid support from the natural triglyceride/wax ester composition.
Why It's Used: Natural carrier oils provide sc-compatible lipid composition for genuine barrier integration rather than surface-only occlusion.
