Coco-Caprylate is chemically an ester between alcohols and medium chain saturated fatty acids (C8-C18) obtained from coconut.

It is a very versatile emollient and can be used in the fat phase of all categories of cosmetic products, for the face, body and hair.

It appears as a transparent oily liquid with little viscosity and almost odorless.

It spreads easily and is quickly absorbed by the skin. It is rapidly biodegradable. Indicated for oily and acne-prone skin due to its very dry touch, almost comparable to that of cyclomethicone. It is considered a safe and non-irritating ingredient.
