Caprylic/capric triglyceride is a natural ingredient derived from coconut oil. It is known for its emollient, dispersing, solvent, and antioxidant properties. It helps soften skin, keep ingredients evenly distributed, dissolve certain ingredients, and protect against environmental toxins. It is considered safe for topical use and suitable for all skin types.
Hydration: Helps skin retain moisture. Emollient: Softens skin by trapping moisture. Dispersing agent: Keeps ingredients evenly distributed. Solvent: Dissolves certain ingredients. Antioxidant: Neutralizes toxins and prevents skin aging. Interrupts microbial growth: May inhibit the growth of certain microbes on the skin. Improves spreadability: Enhances the application of products. Thickener: Adds viscosity to formulations. Penetration Enhancer: Facilitates the absorption of other ingredients into the skin. Reduces the appearance of wrinkles: As dehydrated skin is one of the main causes of wrinkles, the hydrating effects of capric triglyceride help to replenish lost moisture and reduce the appearance of fine lines.

Caprylic/capric triglyceride is a natural alternative to synthetic chemicals in skincare products. It is known to improve the spreadability of a product and can also function as a thickener or penetration Enhancer. It is also used in some foods, such as baked goods, soft candies, cheeses, frozen dairy products, gelatins, puddings, and meat products. Caprylic/capric triglyceride is suspected to be an environmental toxin and may have organ system toxicity (non-reproductive). However, it is not expected to be potentially toxic or harmful and is not suspected to be persistent or bioaccumulative. Caprylic/capric triglyceride is commonly used as an emollient in personal care products, replacing White Oils and Petrolatum in makeup, moisturizers, skin care, sunscreen products, and perfumes. It is also used as an ingredient in pet foods, pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, flavor and fragrance, and nutraceuticals. Caprylic/capric triglyceride is not comedogenic, meaning it does not clog pores.
