Cetearyl olivate/Sorbitan olivate is used in many natural personal care products like sunscreen lotions, moisturisers, lotions and hair conditioners.

Cetearyl olivate/Sorbitan olivate is made by combining cetearyl olivate and sorbitan olivate. Cetearyl olivate is made by reacting cetearyl alcohol with olive oil fatty acids and sorbitan olivate is made by reacting sorbitol with olive oil fatty acids.

The cetearyl component of Cetearyl olivate/Sorbitan olivate may be derived from animal fats. Vegans, strict vegetarians and those looking to reduce their consumption of animal and animal byproducts may wish to avoid this ingredient unless it is certified vegan by an accredited third party organisation like the Vegan Society.
