Information
Polyglyceryl-4 Caprate is one of the best natural and biodegradable conditioning agents that has many benefits for the skin. This ingredient can make the skin feel fresh, smooth, and energized. It is known for its versatility, functioning as a surfactant, emulsifier, cleansing, and skin-conditioning agent.
Where does it come from?
Polyglyceryl-4 Caprate is derived most commonly from plant oils like rapeseed oil. The ingredient is composed of fatty acid, capric acid, and glycerin-derived polyglycerin-4, which are combined to create a compound that can dissolve in both water and oil.
Conditioning: It makes the skin feel smooth, fresh, and energized.
Hydrating: It locks in moisture and prevents it from evaporating, helping to maintain skin hydration.
Cleansing: Its ability to dissolve in both oil and water makes it effective in removing makeup and other impurities.
Emollient: It softens the skin, providing a smooth texture.
Solubilizer: It helps dissolve small amounts of oil-loving materials, such as essential oils, into liquid formulas.
Emulsifier: It aids in dispersing ingredients evenly within a product, resulting in a stable formulation.
Penetration Enhancer: It can help active ingredients, like peptides, penetrate the skin more effectively.
How is it used in our products?
Polyglyceryl-4 Caprate is used, for example, in F59 Corrective Face Serum and F06 Cell Active Face Serum from OLIVEDA. It is included for its emollient, hydrating, and conditioning properties that aim to smooth and hydrate the skin. It ensures that active ingredients penetrate more efficiently and that oil-based ingredients are properly dispersed.
