Plant derived ingredient

Glyceryl Caprylate

Other Name(s):

Glyceryl Monocaprylate; CAS# 26402-26-6

Glyceryl Caprylate is made from raw materials most typically derived from coconut and palm kernel oil, though it is possible for it to be made without the use of palm kernel oil.

Is Glyceryl Caprylate Faithful to Nature?

Yes.

Glyceryl Caprylate is a naturally derived ingredient with many uses. It’s raw materials can be grown sustainably and its manufacturing process is much more eco-friendly than alternatives.

Benefits: Why is Glyceryl Caprylate Used?

Great Emulsifier

Glyceryl Caprylate helps water-based and oil-based ingredients to blend uniformly.

Efficient Moisturiser

Glyceryl Caprylate helps to moisturise skin, leaving it softer and more hydrated.

Offers Skin Protection

Glyceryl Caprylate supports the skin’s natural skin barrier function.

Potent Preservative

Glyceryl Caprylate inhibits the growth of bacteria and yeast to improve the shelf life of skincare and cosmetic products.

Glyceryl Caprylate can be found in makeup from foundations and eye shadows, to lipstick and eyeliners. Many kincare formulations make use of glyceryl caprylate too, from moisturising day and night creams to deep hydration masks.

Glyceryl Caprylate is made by an esterification reaction of glycerine and caprylic acid.

Glyceryl caprylate and polyglyceryl caprylate are much safer alternatives to Polyethylene Glycols (PEGs) since the manufacturing processes of PEGs can result in contamination with 1,4-dioxane (an extremely carcinogenic substance).
