It is also used as a penetration enhancer, which means it helps other ingredients to penetrate the skin more easily. Triheptanoin is a light, oily liquid that works as a very high spreadability and low viscosity emollient making the skin nice and smooth. It is a 100% plant-based cyclomethicone replacement.
