Stearic acid helps to repair skin,  improve the flexibility of skin, improves skin’s barrier function. Oleic acid helps the various beneficial nutrients penetrate deeply into skin. 
• Conjugated linoleic acid or CLA has powerful anti inflammatory properties, and is also antimicrobial.

• Palmitic acid helps improve the smoothness of skin, and helps with skin’s barrier function, and decreases as we age.
