WHAT IS IT? DMDM Hydantoin is a white, crystalline solid used in the formulation of shampoos, hair conditioners, skin care products, moisturizers, bath products and makeup bases and foundations. DMDM Hydantoin is a formaldehyde-releasing preservative, which prevents personal care products from spoilage.
Whale blubber is something everyone might be used to in daily life but often fail to recognize it. Whale blubber is pure fat that is used for almost all cosmetics, soaps, leather etc.
The whale uses its snout to forage by dislodging tiny creatures from the seafloor. It then filters these morsels with its baleenâa comblike strainer of plates in the upper jaw. A piece of gray whale baleen, also called whalebone, is about 18 inches (46 centimeters) long and has a consistency much like a fingernail.
