ECOHANCE® Soft BOL

ECOHANCE® Soft BOL is a highly sustainable ester oil that delivers an exceptional liquid silk sensation, superior to traditional silicones.

Product Description

    Product Overview
    ECOHANCE® Soft BOL is a liquid emollient derived from 100% next-generation feedstocks, including residues from olive oil refining and whisky distillation.
