About Caprylyl Laurate

Caprylyl Laurate is an ester containing parts derived from an acid and an alcohol bonded together.[1] The moisturization and spreadability of finished products formulated with Caprylyl Laurate may vary depending on the use concentration and the combination of moisturizing and emollient ingredients used with it. In cosmetics, it is used to leave the skin’s surface feeling soft and smooth, and to reduce friction on the skin or hair and add a smooth feel.[1]
