Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride

​

Derived from coconut oil and glycerin, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride creates a barrier on the skin's surface, decreasing the amount of moisture lost through the skin, functioning not only to prevent dryness in skin, but also as a skin conditioning agent.

 

Dispersing agent
As a dispersing agent, caprylic/capric triglycerides help to enhance the delivery of other key ingredients so that they can be fully absorbed by the skin.

 

Texture
Provides a slipperiness. In turn, products that contain caprylic/capric triglycerides will be easy to spread and also create a smooth feeling on the skin.

 

Antioxidant
Caprylic acid is an antioxidant. Antioxidants help to neutralize free radicals that are produced during oxidation. Oxidation is a natural process in the body that can be increased by exposure to environmental factors such as smoking, the sun, and diet. Free radicals have been linked with the aging process.
