Thickeners are key ingredients used to modify the viscosity and consistency of cosmetic formulations, creating richer lotions, creamy serums, and stable gels. Common thickeners include natural polymers (like xanthan gum or carrageenan), synthetic agents (such as carbomers), and waxes (like beeswax or cetyl alcohol). They improve product spreadability, stability, and sensory appeal while helping to suspend active ingredients. Modern formulations prioritize skin-friendly thickeners that deliver luxurious textures without compromising performance.
