Information

Isohexadecane is a lightweight, fast-absorbing emollient that helps create a smooth, silky feel on the skin. It is commonly used in cosmetic formulations to promote spreadability and provide a soft, non-greasy finish. Known for its ability to evaporate partially after application, Isohexadecane leaves the skin feeling comfortable and smooth without heaviness, contributing to an elegant product texture.

Where does it come from?

Isohexadecane is a lab derived ingredient, produced from petroleum-based sources through a highly refined and controlled process. This ensures a pure, stable ingredient suitable for cosmetic use that can enhance texture, spreadability, and overall product performance.
While Isohexadecane is derived from petroleum sources, it undergoes extensive purification to ensure it meets EU Cosmetic Regulation safety standards and delivers consistent, high-quality results.
Within our approach to clean beauty, ingredients are selected based on their safety, skin compatibility, and functional performance, rather than solely on their origin. Isohexadecane is included to support lightweight textures, smooth application, and an improved sensory experience. We prioritize transparency in our formulations and thoughtfully balance naturally derived and carefully selected synthetic ingredients to create effective, high-performing products.
