Coco-Caprylate/Caprate is a natural ester derived from coconut oil and caprylic/capric fatty acids. It is commonly used in skincare products as an emollient and skin-conditioning agent, offering a lightweight and non-greasy texture that helps improve the skin's overall feel and appearance. This ingredient is valued for its ability to mimic the skin's natural lipid layer.

Where does it come from?

Coco-Caprylate/Caprate is sourced from coconut oil, which is rich in fatty acids. The ingredient is produced through esterification, where fatty acids from coconut oil are combined with caprylic and capric acids. This process results in a highly stable and skin-friendly ester that is easily absorbed and offers a smooth, silky finish.
