Capric/Caprylic Triglyceride

« Back to Glossary Index

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is a mixed triester derived from coconut oil and glycerin, commonly included in a wide array of cosmetic and personal care products due to its exceptional skin compatibility and stability. This ingredient is renowned for its lightweight, non-greasy texture, making it an ideal moisturizer and skin-replenishing agent. It functions as an emollient, effectively softening the skin by trapping moisture and preventing water loss, thus enhancing the skin’s barrier function. Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is also appreciated for its ability to dissolve other ingredients and improve the texture and application of skincare and makeup formulations. Due to its occlusive properties, it helps in forming a protective layer on the skin’s surface, contributing to hydration and smoothness. Additionally, its stability and resistance to oxidation extend the shelf life of products. Its mild nature makes it suitable for sensitive and acne-prone skin types, supporting skin health without clogging pores or causing irritations.
