Microcrystalline Cellulose

Low risk

FunctionTexture

What it is — Microcrystalline Cellulose (INCI: Microcrystalline Cellulose) is a purified, plant-derived cellulose used as a texture agent.

What it does — It is commonly used to adjust thickness and slip, stabilize suspensions and give a formula a pleasant body and feel.

Typical use — It appears in creams, lotions, masks, scrubs and some powders, where it helps structure the texture.

Who it suits / good to know — Non-active and generally inert on skin; it shapes how a product feels rather than delivering a skincare effect.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it low risk in its EWG-style, ingredient-by-ingredient review. This reflects the ingredient in general and is not medical advice; patch-test if your skin is easily irritated.
