Sodium Stearate is a fatty acid salt that functions as a surfactant, helping to cleanse the skin and create lather. It also acts as an emulsifier and thickener, providing structure to solid products. Sorbitol is a sugar alcohol that acts as a humectant, drawing moisture to the skin to keep it hydrated and improving product texture. This combination is often found in solid stick formulations like cleansers or deodorants.
