It is produced by esterifying glycerin with fractionated coconut fatty acids (caprylic and capric acid), resulting in a pure, stable, and odorless oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What it does:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Caprylic\/Capric Triglyceride is a lightweight, non-greasy emollient oil that is considered a gold standard in cosmetic formulation for its exceptional sensory profile and compatibility. Primary functions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Lightweight emollient:<\/strong> Provides instant spreadability and a silky, dry-touch after-feel without any oily or heavy residue. It softens and smooths the skin&#8217;s surface while allowing it to breathe.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Solvent and carrier:<\/strong> Excellently dissolves and stabilizes lipophilic (oil-soluble) active ingredients, ensuring uniform distribution and efficacy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Skin conditioning:<\/strong> Forms a protective film that helps reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL) while maintaining a light, comfortable skin feel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Viscosity modifier:<\/strong> Reduces the thickness and stickiness of heavier oils and butters, improving the overall texture and application of the formula.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why we use it:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We use Caprylic\/Capric Triglyceride as a versatile, high-performance base oil across multiple products. In our <strong>daily moisturiser<\/strong>, it provides lightweight, rapid-absorption emollience that leaves skin silky, never greasy. In our oil-to-milk cleanser, it helps dissolve makeup and impurities while contributing to the elegant, non-tacky texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Oxidative stability:<\/strong> Fully saturated, it is extremely stable and resistant to rancidity, unlike oils high in unsaturated fats. This extends product shelf life naturally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Comedogenic rating:<\/strong> Rated 0-1 (non-comedogenic to low). It is exceptionally well-tolerated by oily and acne-prone skin types.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>INCI: CAPRYLIC\/CAPRIC TRIGLYCERIDEType: Emollient, skin conditioning, viscosity modifierOrigin: A medium-chain triglyceride derived from coconut oil or palm kernel oil.
