Is Hydrogenated Lecithin good for sensitive skin?
Soy-derived phospholipid, hydrogenated so it does not go rancid. Two jobs: it emulsifies, and it forms the little bilayer spheres that brands call liposomal or capsule delivery. Whether a liposome meaningfully improves delivery depends entirely on the formula, so treat the word capsule on packaging as a claim to check, not a guarantee.
