FSS CAPRYLYL GLYCOL

Caprylyl Glycol (1,2-Octanediol) is a versatile ingredient valued for its ability to provide moisturizing, conditioning, and preservative-boosting benefits in a wide range of personal care formulations. As a humectant and emollient, it helps attract and retain moisture while leaving skin and hair feeling soft and conditioned without a heavy or greasy feel. It is commonly incorporated into preservative systems to improve the performance of traditional preservatives, helping formulators create more robust formulations. In addition to its conditioning properties, Caprylyl Glycol can contribute to the viscosity and overall sensory profile of cosmetic products, making it a popular choice in creams, lotions, serums, hair care products, and other leave-on or rinse-off applications.
